INDEX | ALL SILVER |
DESCRIPTION | Good quality and stylish antique English Victorian solid sterling silver cup with a remarkable handle, partly fluted body, gilded interior and frontal monogram and date engraving. The handle has more than a hint of Christopher Dresser. I like the way that it touches the table top and in doing so adds extra stability to the cup. |
