Without hallmarks. With property initials.
Container known as catavinos (wine cup) or tembladera with two curved flat handles decorated with simplified plant elements, and a line of morsels (shell-like shapes) on the edge enhanced by bands of recessed spots that remain in relief inside the piece, where they are extended and framed the decoration of the background. In this area there is a Greek cross with fleur-de-lis endings in bright smooth finish with the letters “RA” engraved (property initials), highlighted on a bottom of pitted points. These kind of drinking cups were frequent pieces in Spanish silverware of the 17th century, being usually relegated to centers of somewhat less importance in the 18th century. Compare pieces such as the silver bernegal of the last third of the 17th century of the Lázaro Galdiano Museum (perhaps of Portuguese school, inventory 3916), or the one dated between 1640 and 1665 of the same museum (inventory 3910), or that made by José Jiménez de Illescas (inventory 3915, dated 17151725) in the same institution. Weight: 94 gr.
Size: 13.5 x 10.5 x 4.5 cms.
