A lovely set of 5 Brass-Plated Julep Cups and matching straws, by De Uberti Italy. Mid Century. These vintage Julep cups are simply lovely and feature ribbed lines/detailing at the top and bottom of the cups. Heavier in weight, these cups have a solid feel to them. The straws (which can also serve as swizzle sticks) also have a heavier, solid feel to them. Truly a stunning set.
Again, please note: this set/these cups have a gold "hue" or tone to them as they have a brass-plating. If you're looking for a silver-toned cup, please see our other Julep cup listings. Cheers.
Measurements: Each cup measures a tad over 3 3/4" x 3" in diameter; the straws measure 6" in length
Maker: De Uberti Italy
Hallmarks: "De Uberti Italy" can be found on the bottom of each cup
Condition: Good vintage condition with mild signs of age. We like to be thorough, so here's a full summary:
1) There's "tarnish" on the cups as well as the straws (we have not polished them)
2) There's general "age" (that comes purely from time)
3) There's very mild "surface wear" (that comes from past handling, how the cups were stored, etc)
In short, these cups are in good condition overall but do show mild signs of age and tarnish. They display beautifully. Cheers.
