IMO it was probably a simple cup, because Christ was a simple Rabbi on earth, not an earthly king. A defensible position. As an alternative, though, may I remind that He did not celebrate the Passover in His own house ... rather, in the house of someone wealthy enough to have a fully furnished spare dining room, that could be loaned to an itinerant rabbi and His disciples. Hence, the cup in question might have been very rich and ornate.

Joseph of Arimathea was wealthy, contributed the Tomb and according to legend took the Grail with him to England.

Read below what someone posted to me about the cup. It was an education and made sense.
