Literature: Coconuts were prized in early times for their healing powers and drinking vessels were often formed from them. The coconut cup is a variety of standing cup, made and used in Europe in the 15th and 16th Century, with a revival in Georgian England. Usually they have a pedestal foot or 3 ornamental feet and are mounted in silver or Old Sheffield plate.

This collectible cup is in very good condition with no damage or restoration. The coconut has a good finish and does not leak. The rim has the makers mark stamped 3 times, the foot is unmarked.
