Portuguese 925 Silver Coffee Cup – Military Motif, Art Deco Style

A distinctive Portuguese coffee cup crafted in 925 sterling silver, decorated with finely executed military motifs including drums, trumpet, and sword, symbols traditionally associated with honor, ceremony, and martial tradition.

The design is rendered in a restrained Art Deco style, combining clean lines with stylized relief ornamentation that reflects the modern aesthetic of the early 20th century while preserving strong symbolic character.

The cup bears Portuguese silver hallmarks attesting to the quality of the metal and its national origin. Both decorative and collectible, the piece stands as an elegant example of Portuguese silversmithing, blending ceremonial iconography with the geometric refinement of the Art Deco movement.

Period: 20th century

An unusual and characterful object, ideal for collectors of military memorabilia, Art Deco silver, or fine Portuguese decorative arts.
