Antique 1730 Silver Hungarian Passover Kiddush Cup Beaker Jewish Hungary Judaica:
$6000.00

inches high, 2 inches wide. In remarkable condition for being such an old cup, there are some light dings by the base, but the body and rim is dent/ding free, no splits or repairs anywhere. Has a very dark patina that I am leaving alone, because some collectors of very old silver like the patina, of course if you decide to polish it this would look stunning. This 13 with arm holding Flag hallmark is for early 18th century Nyitra, Hungary and the maker is for Gottfried Siffinger, who worked between 1720 and 1732. The Hebrew is the last few words of the Passover Seder service.

A few years ago a salt cellar with the same hallmarks that are on this cup came up for sale, and it states Gottfried Siffinger as the maker, you can see the salt cellar in the archives of the sale website Invaluable, just go to Advanced Search and enter the name Gottfried Siffinger in the search bar.
