A Toast with the Most!

With New Year's Eve just around the corner, these shimmering sterling silver wine goblets will certainly add special sparkle to your champagne toast!

Underneath they carry the rising sun mark of Asahi Shoten of Yokohama, Japan. Active in the early-to-mid 1900s, this company was known for its high-quality sterling silver flatware and tableware, with Japanese motifs or in sleek Art Deco western style. The company usually used higher grade silver in its creations. This piece is marked "Sterling" and "950." Typically sterling silver is denoted by the assay number "925," indicating that the item contains 92.5 percent silver. These glimmering goblets carry the assay number "950," meaning that they are 95 percent silver.

All posted items are for sale at Next-to-New, but things can sell quickly!
