This isa very rare Charles II period silver tumbler cup with an engraved coat-of-arms.

Thislarge tumbler cup was made from a good gauge of silver and is in finecondition. The condition is excellent with a good overall patina. The clear hallmarks are located to the underside, but apparently there is no maker\'s mark.

The coat-of-arms is engravedin the typical style for the period. The shading method used to denote colourwas not introduced until the early 18th century,so this piece pre-datesthis invention and so the exact colours on these arms cannot be worked out, butevidently they were striped horizontally.

Hollowware from the Charles II period is scarce and this is a good item at a sensible price.

Perfect for that well-earnedshot of whisky, brandy, cognac, whiskey, bourbon etc…
