Description from the seller
Trophy Cup and Pair of Jugs in Portuguese Silver (Porto, Eagle 833)
Set consisting of a cup/fruit bowl and a matching pair of jugs, in Portuguese hallmarked silver (finest 833), with a total weight of 645 grams.
The entire set bears the official Contrastaria do Porto mark (Eagle facing left, period 1938-1984), guaranteeing purity, authenticity and the legal fineness of the metal.
Details of the Pieces:
• Cup / Fruit Bowl with Cut Border: Measuring 25 cm in width by 5.5 cm in height (357 g). Stands out for the sumptuous embossed work with concave and convex reliefs in the Baroque Joano style, offering an excellent aesthetic presence.
• Pair of Classical-Style Jugs Bojudas: With 15 cm in height and 9 cm at their widest (151 g and 137 g). Richly decorated with chiselled floral motifs, acanthus leaves and scrolls that harmonize perfectly with the design of the cup.
Lot Highlights:
• Handcrafted Character: The jugs show genuine and subtle variations in weight and shape resulting from handcrafting in a workshop, which proves their purely artistic and traditional nature.
• Exceptional Condition: The entire set is in excellent condition, with no dents, solder lines, restorations or wear on the reliefs. The silver retains its original luster and period patina.
An excellent opportunity for collectors, investors or anyone seeking pieces of great elegance for interior decoration.
