This is believed to be a rare and exceptional matching set of three (3) antique French silver Kiddush cup beakers or shot cups. Each cup features a classic tapered form with a slightly flared rim, adorned with masterfully hand-engraved floral sprays and scrolled rococo-style cartouches. The cartouches remain unmonogrammed, offering a clean aesthetic or the opportunity for future personalization.
Believed to have been crafted by the renowned Parisian silversmith Gabriel Pascal, these beakers were assayed with the Minerva export mark, signifying they were manufactured to meet rigorous international standards for high-end silver trade. These are not merely functional ritual objects but are examples of fine late 19th-century European silver artistry.
