    Vintage horn drinking cup from Champery, Switzerland. It measures approximately 8.5cm tall and 5.2cm across the mouth of the cup. It has a nice tapering shape and has been hollowed out to be almost transparent in places. It has been branded (I think) with a jumping goat, elk or reindeer motif with the initials F.P. and the place name of Champery. It's age is not known but it appears to be quite old. It feels very nice to hold and is a lovely and quirky little piece to display.

    Condition wise it is excellent and other than a little area where the horn has flaked during manufacture on the bottom rim, it is in great condition. This little area is shown in the final photograph.

    This listing is for the horn cup only. All other items in the photographs are for display or size comparison purposes only and are not included.

    Please look at all of the photographs and the video as these form part of the description and help to show scale, colour and condition.
