the underside, but as this is a fairly rustic/handmade type of piece it's hard
to tell what is deliberate to the making and what is after the fact. There are
no splits, no monograms, no monogram removals, and no repairs.
The underside of the cup is stamped with 900 for the purity of the silver, as
well as”Industria Peruana” meaning the piece was made in Peru. There is also

The cup stands about 3 ¼ inches tall. The mouth of the cup is about 3 1/8
inches in diameter.
The cup weighs 112 grams or 4.0 regular ounces.
