Sterling Silver Stirrup Cup - Contemporary 2011

This exceptional contemporary sterling silver stirrup cup has been realistically modelled in the form of a hunting dog/English Mastiff's head.

The surface of this cast cup incorporates details to reproduce the canine's facial features and fur.

The rim of this silver stirrup cup is encircled with a plain moulded border.

* The dog has been determined as an English Mastiff due to the characteristics of the facial features and furrowed brow, in addition for their use within hunting.

Maker: James R Biggins

This silver stirrup cup is a superior gauge of silver, exceptional quality and in exceptional condition.
