Title
Egg Cup Featuring FS
Description
1900? Egg Cup Featuring FS. 2.2” high. 1.7” diameter at top. Unknown source.

Exquisite piece of workmanship. FS is repeated four times around this small beaker. The maker's mark on its base seems to indicate that it is silver plate ("METAL ARGENTE"). I am given to understand that the lower marks -- 5GG? -- may indicate the amount of silver used and the manufacturer's code.
