[QUOTE="DBinSV, post: 352723, member: 7320"]My grandmother told me that this cup was a gift from an uncle. It was among the things my maternal grandparents took with them when they left Russia in 1916. Searching by images on Google, I found two cups with similar scrolling foliage designs, at [URL='http://www.ivantiques.com/193173/Russian-Niello-Kiddush-Cup']invantiques.com[/URL] and [URL='http://ancientpoint.com/inf/159647- judaica_russian_antique_niello_silver_84_kiddush_vodka_cup_30gr___moscow_1856.html']ancientpoint.com[/URL]. The marks, however, are not the same (nor is the height: this cup is 2.125 inches or almost 5.5 cm.). As I prepare to pass this along as part of the collection to my niece and nephew, I’m wondering whether anyone can help me with the identification, so I can put some documentation into the notes I send along with the pieces. The photos include the marks on the bottom as well as the side of the cup, right underneath the rim (the latter is as close-up a shot as I could manage).
