The cup of Pythagoras
A fascinating physical principle
This extraordinary cup vividly illustrates an ingenious physical principle attributed to the Greek mathematician Pythagoras: If the beaker is filled to a certain height, everything remains in order. However, if you exceed the mark, the entire contents flow out completely through a hidden hole at the bottom of the cup - an impressive demonstration of moderation and the balance of nature. Those who are greedy go away empty-handed.
Important note: Pythagoras' cup is purely an object for demonstration purposes and is not suitable as a drinking vessel. Due to the hidden, unglazed area inside, we recommend using the cup solely to demonstrate the effect.
