Description

This small antique silver-plated cup features a classic cylindrical form with a squared handle and is delicately engraved with the name “Virginia Ann” in flowing cursive script. The surface displays extensive tarnish and multicolored oxidation, creating a striking, mottled iridescent patina of blues, greens, and warm copper tones. The base bears a faint maker’s mark along with “MADE IN U.S.A.” and additional partially legible lettering, indicating production by an American silver manufacturer. Measuring approximately 2" high and 3" wide, in good condition.
