Need help me with info about this nice gucci set of 6 animal head cups. And is that silver or just silver plated. And when they was making them. Thanks
Hi arturino. I've seen similar pieces online before listed as being 'silver', 'sterling' and as 'gold metal' or brass. Some are listed as shot glass size and others are quite a bit larger. Most seem to date around 1960 or so. Are they shot glasses or are they larger than that?? Are they marked 'sterling' or do they have any other marks? If sterling, there will be markings indicating that somewhere on them. Hope that helps a little.
Thank you chinablue for quick help. No they are wine cups. 6 inch tall, diametr 3 inch, weight 14.6 oz. I dont see any marks on the cup
Thank you BELLIN68. I sow u got one too ) do u know how muc hthey worth ?
Thank you BELLIN68 ) i always love antique stuff but this is the first thing i have
arturino777, seems you have quite the find there. Way to go Bellin68! :-)
Looks like pewter, its hard to tell from the photos but they're not sterling. They are called hunting cups, they were given to a rider on a horse just before hunting game, using the animal to be hunted. Supposed to bring good luck, help you bag an animal
Wow, this is incredible! Im learning so much today, many thanks dear agh!!!
