TWO VINTAGE SILVER PLATED STAG HARE STIRRUP CUPS
Two vintage English brass silver plated stirrup cups with a stag head and a hare head for each base. Designed by Sheffield Silver Co. A stirrup cup was used to serve a drink given to guests at the last moment before departure when they had their feet in the leather stirrups, hence the name. The stirrup cup was also used for the drink served at the meet before a foxhunt. Vintage Drinkware Collectibles.
