A stunning set of silver-plated Julep cups by Towle Silversmiths, 1970s. These vintage Julep cups are simply lovely and feature the classic "tapered" design with a thicker footed base and beading detailing along the base and top. Heavier in weight, these cups are solid and well-crafted. Truly a lovely set.
Please note: we have another set of four of these in this exact size, if you'd like a larger set. See other listings.
Measurements: each cup is just shy of 4 1/2" tall x 3 1/4" in diameter
Maker: Towle Silversmiths
Hallmarks: Each cup has "Towle" on the bottom
Condition Summary: Very good vintage condition with very minor age. These cups appear to be NOS (new old stock) as two of them still have their cotton and plastic bags on them and the other two look unused. The silver-plating is incredibly vibrant overall. Please note a few things: There's minor tarnish in a few places (these have never been polished) including tarnish on the very bottom exteriors as well as minor age (not from use, but purely from time. And this is nit-picky but one of the cup's bottom rims isn't perfectly round. It's 99% round and it's so subtle it's hardly detectable, but we like to be thorough when it comes to our vintage sets. In short, these cups are in good shape and appeared to be new old stock. Truly a stunning set.
