Description

This exceptional antique Victorian sterling silver loving / presentation cup is of bell-shaped form, with hand-chased floral motifs on the body and foot.

The body of this antique cup is ornamented to either side with two scroll-decorated shaped cartouches.

The cartouche to one side displays a greyhound and the shaped cartouche on the other side of the cup remains vacant. This most unusual cup was maybe given as a prize for greyhound racing or perhaps it was a special order for a greyhound lover.

This fine cup is fitted with impressive scroll handles.

The cup was made in 1860 by Robert Harper of London.

Dimensions, height 12.8 cm, width from handle to handle 16.5 cm.

Weight, 7.33 troy oz.
