Description

The listing, Lot of (3) Antique Sterling Silver Mint Julep Coffee/Tea Sippers has ended.

Ok gang, this is the first time I am listing some of my higher end antique items. PLEASE make it worth it for me and I will list lots more! FYI.... the GIN cost is typically what these go for when I sell them on Ebay.

These are a set of 3 mint julep sterling silver antique tea sippers. They measure 4.5" long and the leaves measure 1" wide. They are marked .925 and read "Hecho en Mexico" (made in Mexico) on the backside of the spoon.

Tea sippers were served with coffee or tea and were used to stir and, if desired, drink out of the straw stem.

These are vintage items and do have tarnishing and a couple of dings. They are silver, so you can polish them if you like, but the age lends to their character!

Questions & Comments

Ah....... My Dad would have loved these my friend. I'm watching for now but might be bidding too. They would make me think of him I believe

I've got 6 sets of varying styles. I'll see how these go. If they do well I will list others, so if you don't get this set, keep your eye out for others!

Do this have an eagle stamped on them too?

They do have a manufacturers stamp on it, but I can't quite make out what it is. Doesn't look to be an eagle though.

I just figured since they were added in Mexico that would be the stamp. Most of the time it really doesn't look like an eagle but it is one. These are very nice regardless of the stamp. Hope I have enough to bid at the end.
