AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Pair of parade cups in solid argent 800, characterized by rich artistic workmanship and a finely gilded interior (vermeil).

The stem of each goblet is finely worked in relief and depicts a mythological figure (a faun/satyr or a young bacchant) playing a wind instrument, resting on a base decorated with grapevine tendrils, leaves, and high-relief grape clusters.

Under the base there is the commemorative inscription "12.10.1955 - 1980". The items regularly bear the hallmark "800" certifying the purity of the silver.

Material: Solid silver 800 with gilded interior (vermeil)

Total weight: about 465.7 grams (Goblet 1: 228.5g | Goblet 2: 237.2g)

Conditions: Very good, with slight signs of time and the natural patina of silver that enhance its antique charm. No structural deformation.

Please carefully view the photographic gallery, which is an integral part of the description, to assess details and condition. Tracked shipping and careful packaging.
