Rare Series Of 12 Sterling Silver Muron Timpani Or Goblet. German Work St. XVIII. Augsburg

Beautiful and rare series of twelve curons in solid silver.

The twelve curons are identical. They are marked with a double net under the rim and another net at two thirds of their height.

Under each curon, there is a striche, which is a mark left by the assayer who takes a shaving of metal to ensure that the metal is indeed silver.
Each piece is also hallmarked with the swan, the French hallmark for second-hand works in solid silver.

It is probably a work from the end of the 19th century in the style of the 18th century, but may be older, the absence of a hallmark makes the identification uncertain.

The curons are heavy and of very good quality, the walls are thick and regular.
