A cased set of nine Edwardian silver miniature 'tyg' shot cups.

A set of nine Edwardian silver shot cups, each modelled as a miniature tyg, the plain circular bowl standing on a tapering spread base with three looped handles, all contained within a fitted case. Hallmarked Goldsmiths & Silversmiths Co Ltd., London 1906. Height measuring 2 inches (5cm), gross weight 10.3 ozt (322.6 grams). In good overall condition, the lot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. All pieces would benefit from a clean and polish. The left hinge on the fitted case looks to have been replaced, there is also a significant split along the back edge and corners, this damage causes the two pieces of the case to not align and instead overlap, the case shuts but not securely or flush. Some Hallmarks clear and legible.
