Antique Silver Plated Stag's Head Stirrup Cup Dated Circa 1920's
A stirrup cup is a "parting cup" given to guests, especially when they are leaving and have their feet in the stirrups. It is also the traditional drink (usually port or sherry) served at the meet, prior to a traditional foxhunt. The term can describe the cup that such a drink is served in.
This fine example was made as with a cast stag on top and is gilt inside.
It once belonged to the "Moor Park Golf Club" as it has the golf club crest on the front.
