ANTIQUE SILVER ENGRAVED NIELLO CUP WITH LID
An antique silver engraved niello cup featuring a remarkable piece of craftsmanship, showcasing intricate detailing and rich decoration.

The lid, surmounted with a flower, adds an elegant touch to the cup. The cups surface, adorned with various patterns, figures, and animals, tells a visual story that reflects the cultural and artistic influences of the time it was created. Hallmarked. Circa the early 20th century. Antique Silver Cups And Drinkware Collectibles.
