A small vintage beaker that flares from a stepped ring foot up to a wide rim. The shape comes from the French timbale, the metal cup given as a christening present, and it has the same solid, slightly formal feel in the hand.
It's good for a short, full bunch of roses or garden flowers, and it also works on a desk for pens and brushes.
Period: Mid-20th century
Dimensions: Height 12 cm, diameter 10 cm at the rim.
Materials: Nickel silver
Condition: good vintage condition. Faint grey marks to the surface and light scratches consistent with age. Recently polished, and it holds its shine.
