Antique French Sterling Silver Egg Cup or Egg Holder
An antique French egg cup with tripod legs resting on a round base. Foliage motifs decorate the egg cup along with a script monogram (possibly SS).
A special piece that you will love to use and enjoy as it is a perfectly elegant way to enjoy one’s breakfast egg.
Re-purpose your silver egg cups in other ways, perfect for holding small chocolates on a guest nightstand, holding rings by the sink, or for small flower arraignments. Always be sure to use a small cup inside the holder for the water and ends of flowers as the decay from the stems will etch into silver.
Very good quality silver and craftsmanship with a unique design. Good gauge weighing in at 58.2 grams.
French, C 1900, marked with the French Minerve 1st mark for first standard .950 (used after 1838) along with the maker’s punch which is being researched.
