Subject:Copper and brass cup with pressed seals and face.
Posted By: Bill Thu, Feb 23, 2017 IP: 73.38.45.56

I purchased it his cup in a lot of random items at an auction years ago and I would love to know more about what it is for, age, and where it is from. It looks very old. There is a round ring attached to the rim that is not vissable in the photos.

Thank you

Hi, the writing looks like Persian or Arabic? I think it may be an older piece that was added onto with the fu dog. I am not an expert but it does look oddly out of place to me. Good luck!
