    Beautiful Rare Vintage Antique 800 Sterling Silver & Cut Crystal Miniature Demitasse Cups / Shot Glasses With Handles - Set of 12. These are very old so they could be pre 1940's. I'm not sure of the age and made in Germany or Italy judging by the family history; definitely European. Truly a nice set for any collector or anyone that loves crystal coupled with silver pieces. Very delicate with grapes and leaves pattern, the cut crystal glasses are removable from their sterling silver holder and all are in working order with none sticking. They stand up nicely just like a regular cup with no issues or irregularities. The photos do not do this set justice. Very nice for a dinner party.
    Each weighs approximately 1 oz. and is stamped "800", otherwise no other markings. Some of the 800 stamps appear upside down. Nice vintage condition with very few flaws. A few have small tarnish stains and only one has a very small chip in the top edge. All other crystal cups are in excellent shape.
    They were meticulously cleaned up with professional silver polish and the crystal was hand washed in mild soap for sparkling finishes. Each measures approximately 2 - 1/8" tall by 1 -1/4" wide not including the handle.
    This is sold "as is" with no returns so please ask all questions before bidding.
