Petite English Pewter Barroom Half Gill Measuring Cup

About the Item

The antique pewter cup in the style of a baluster tankard has imprinted twice on the rim "Half Gill." The gill or teacup is a unit of measurement for volume equal to a quarter of a pint.

The body has two double scribed circles as well as at the base of the cup. IMPORTANT NOTE: This is a collectable item to be used for display or decoration only. It is not safe for food use.
