This pair of pewter fox head stirrup cups reflects the long English hunting tradition, where such cups were used for ceremonial toasts before riding out. Fox-form cups became especially popular in Britain during the mid-20th century as both sporting accessories and decorative barware, prized for their sculptural detail and tactile weight. These examples feature crisply cast fox heads with flared bodies, suited for use or display in traditional, English country, lodge, or equestrian-inspired interiors. Likely produced circa 1950s–1960s, they were made in the UK or Europe, drawing directly from centuries-old fox hunting customs and social rituals.
Dimensions: Each cup measures approximately 5" H x 2.5" W x 3" D.
