Those attending the Grand Banquet received a commemorative stein:

an elaborate sterling silver stein

Curving from the base to the lid, the handle of this sterling silver stein has been cast with elaborate scrollwork.  The thumb lift on the lid is cast in the same style as the handle, meeting it at a small hinge that secures a fluted lid.  Smooth rings circle the lip and base of the highly polished main body, which is affixed with a crossed pick and shovel crest to the right of the handle.
There appears to be something written on it.

In the Common language, it reads:
Zul Logoth Grand Banquet - Eoantos 5122
