Loving cups are traditionally two- or three-handled vessels, passed hand to hand around a table for each guest to drink from in turn — a genuinely social form rather than a private trophy. This one carries the mark of John King, hallmarked London 1773, at 215g a modestly scaled example rather than a grand ceremonial piece.
