Description:
Beautiful Art Deco metal cup. The cup is executed in one piece, a fact that gives him a special interest in all its aspects. It"s probably bronze. Covering all its exterior, it has 8 medallions containing a peacock separated by floral pilasters. Both the medallions and the pilasters have small differences between them, although they maintain the same composition. The cup is not perfectly circular having differences between its diameters up to 2 mm. Approximately. The irregularity of the cup, both in its measurements and in its decoration, leads us to think of a craftsmanship. The characteristics of the material of the cup, such as its sound or patina, correspond to those of bronze. Their wear shines, which are reflected in the red photos of the bottoms, also respond to bronze. In any case, the texture is very particular, and may induce the alloy to contain other metals in addition to copper and tin. We thought it could be unique piece. Ideal as a collection item.

Comments:
Because the differences in tonalities between photos and reality are inevitable, it must be borne in mind that the color tones of the photos are not exactly the same as the tones of the actual colors. It presents the own attrition of its time, as well as some stains. It has small damages. The data provided here are unconfirmed personal opinions.
