"Hanap" bowls were medieval wine drinking vessels, commonly found in France and frequently recorded in the 14th century. While forms and decoration vary, they are generally wide and shallow chased bowls with flat bottoms. A well-known example is the "Sanko" bowl at the Met Cloisters, from 14th-century Bosnia or Serbia.
