SILVER HUNT CUPS/6 STERLINGc.1920/A.G.SCHULTZ BALTIMORE
This fantastic set of 6 sterling silver hunt cups are a very unusual form of drinking vessel. Used specifically for tailgating at steeplechases, usually at Hunt Valley, MD, these hunt cups were made by the Baltimore, Maryland silversmith A.G. Schultz, whose distinctive mark (BY HAND) is stamped on the bottom. The cups weigh on average 8.10 troy ounces. Dimensions are 6 inches in height x 3-1/8 inches in diameter at the rim x 2-1/2 inches in diameter at the base. These handled cups would be perfect for Kentucky Derby Day mint juleps or any other cold libation. A very rare form and only the second set we have seen in 20 years.
