Product Description

Antique Louis XVI Style Solid Silver Egg Cup with Minerva Hallmark – Guilloché, Vermeil Interior

Elegant Louis XVI style egg cup crafted in solid silver and bearing the Minerva Hallmark, guaranteeing French silver of high purity (950/1000). The piece features a refined guilloché decoration typical of the Louis XVI taste, with delicate engraved lines that catch the light beautifully.

The interior is finished in vermeil (gold-plated silver), creating a warm contrast with the polished silver exterior. A small medallion engraved with the initials “JB” adds a charming and personal historical touch, enhancing its antique character.

This elegant egg cup combines refined craftsmanship and timeless design, making it a lovely addition to a fine table setting, a silver collection, or a thoughtful gift for collectors of antique French silver.

The piece remains in good antique condition, with only light surface marks consistent with normal use.
