A rare pre revolution era large sterling silver French cup. It is hallmarked with various early marks and a tiny mark to the rim - its tests as high grade silver. It is also marked G HOMON (N in reverse) on the rim, I assume this is the original owner. I would date it to c1760-1780 by its style or possibly earlier. It is in superb condition for its age with just one small dimple - see final photo. It measures 5 inches (12.8cms) tall by 4 inches across the rim and weighs 160g. A rare early piece.
