    A cup of about 7.5 cm high marked "Wai Kee 90 Silver" and then another mark I can't read but which logically would be an import mark. Wai Kee is a Hong Kong-based company in business since 1885. No clue what decade this cup specifically comes from.

    Bought this cup for 2 euros thinking I had a decent chance with something marked "silver". Glad how that worked out. I did have trouble identifying the cup, though, because I've read "Wai Kee" as "Walker", "Walkee", "Wafkee", "Wafkes", and a couple of other variations before I had a lucky search hit that cleared things up. The plain design didn't help the identification process either.
