    I have 50 of these small cups (punch?) that weigh about 2.5 ounces each. They measure about 1.75 inches tall and about 3 inches wide.

    There are two hallmarks on the bottom and one I just recently found on the side of the handle. That mark looks like a dog head with the number 3.

    Thanks for any info!

    The "dog mark" means .800 silver.

    Have you tried drinking out of these without dribbbling ?

    Looking at the inside I'd say a glass lining is missing ( blue cobalt )

    punch glasses and cups usually have a rounded base interior ... in my life anyway.

    while they do look like cups....maybe they were meant 4 a different use...?

    With the handles taller than the sides, I would guess they definitely needed liners. I love them!
