thumb|Still life with blackberry pie, a painting by Willem Heda showing a berkemeyer lying on its side and a standing [[rummer.]] A Berkemeyer is a drinking glass with a wide, flared bowl, dating from 15th-century Germany and the Netherlands, and still made today. They have a characteristic green or yellow colour caused by iron impurities in the sand used for glass production. The thick, hollow stem is covered with prunts providing a secure grip for hands greasy from feasting, similar to the Römer.
