These exceptional antique Russian silver egg cups have a circular rounded form to a swept pedestal foot.
The most expensive egg cups that I could find in the web that is sold today. Dimensions are: the height is 2.49 in. (6.3 cm ) diameter is 1.82 in. (4.6 cm). The cost is £1,645. it is made out of silver. Date of Manufacture around 1900. Originated in Russia.
The design is quite very detailed yet simple at the first glance. Since its silver it is quite shiny and is aesthetically appealing. Both are made with different shape to obligate the egg that would be placed inside.
The top is more of a semi oval whereas, the bottom is more semi circle. Two individual egg cups are able to conjoin perfectly which is quite smart I suppose since if wanted you can put the egg inside and close it with the top part to keep the egg warm for longer.
