<p>[QUOTE=&quot;LoveTheHunt!, post: 2498786, member: 8191&quot;]Greetings! I finally have been able to attend a few estate sales, and found some interesting goodies...</p><p>&nbsp; This is a nice pair of tumblers, 3-5/8&quot; tall, 2-1/2&quot; diameter at rim. They have obviously been machine turned. The outside has a matte finish with honeycomb pattern cut into it.</p><p>&nbsp; The only other markings are on the bottom of each cup: &quot;SILVER&quot;, and an inscription, &quot;From Bhavana and Janak Shah&quot;.</p><p>&nbsp; I have only cleaned one of the cups, so far. They had such pretty toning, I would like to have kept them as they were, if the toning had been more even.</p><p>&nbsp; These do test positive for high silver content with acid, but I don&#039;t know the exact fineness.</p><p>&nbsp; I know that several countries did and/or do sometimes mark items with a simple SILVER stamp - China, old Mexico, old Native American, and others, I&#039;m sure.</p><p>&nbsp; I just wonder whether anyone can tell me anything at all about these, based on their design or decoration? Any and all comments are appreciated![ATTACH=full]267358[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]267359[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]267360[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
