A stunning set of 8 vintage heavy silver-plated Julep cups by Sheridan Silversmiths. These vintage Julep cups are downright magical. They are extremely solid/heavy in weight and well-crafted. They feature the traditional "footed" base and tapered design. Truly a stunning set. Why not serve your drinks or Mint Juleps in these stunning Julep cups?! Cheers.
Measurements: each cup is 4" tall x 3 1/4" in diameter
Maker: Sheridan Silversmiths, Mid Century
Hallmarks: "Sheridan Silversmiths LTD S.P. Brass" (aka silver-plated over brass) can be found on the bottom of each cup along with their logo (a Lion)
Condition: Good vintage condition overall but with mild signs of age. Here's a full summary:
1) The silver-plating is extremely vibrant overall however there is some mild tarnish (we have not polished these cups) to the interiors as well as the exteriors of the cups
2) There's what we refer to as mild "general surface wear" (from past handling, etc).
3) The interiors are in good shape overall but there are some very minor "age spots" in a few spots that may or may not polish away
4) The exterior bottoms are in good shape overall; one cup has a tiny spot of extra silver-plating giving it a a slightly raised look in that one spot (not uncommon with vintage silver-plated pieces)
In short, these Julep cups are in good vintage condition with mild signs of age, mild tarnish, and one very small ding. These cups have been in a display cabinet for decades.Truly a lovely set.
