condition
This antique sterling silver mug is a superior gauge of silver, exceptional quality and in exceptional condition. The chased decoration is very sharp; it can be determined this piece has seen little to no use.
Full hallmarks struck to the surface of the mug are all very clear; the hallmarks are struck deeply due to the superior gauge of silver.
Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of this exceptional and desirable Victorian mug in sterling silver.
