Description
This silverplated baby cup marks a christening with a keepsake to treasure for years to come. Its bright silver body carries the words My Christening Day around the top of the body, with a seated teddy bear and a ribbon banner picked out in the metal beneath, so the design catches the light as it turns. Two open loop handles curve out from either side in the traditional christening cup shape, and the rounded body settles on a neat base. It stands 7.1cm tall, 6.9cm wide and 9.1cm deep, a size that suits a nursery shelf without getting lost.
We see it as a christening gift for a baby or a little one up to three years old, the kind of present a godparent or grandparent chooses so the day has something lasting to remember it by. Once the service and the party are over, it sits happily on a nursery shelf, a chest of drawers or in a glass cabinet, where the words My Christening Day keep the occasion close. It is a keepsake for looking at and treasuring rather than a toy, so we suggest a shelf out of reach of small hands.
The cup is made from metal with a real silverplated finish, which gives it the bright, mirror-like shine of a traditional christening piece. To keep it looking its best, dust it with a soft dry cloth and, when it needs more, wipe it gently with a slightly damp cloth and dry it straight away; harsh or abrasive cleaners are best avoided on any plated surface. Wrapping it in a soft cloth when it is put away helps the silver stay bright between outings. For a thoughtful gift, pair it with a card from the day, and it becomes a small piece of family history to pass on.
