Thanks very much Jim, looks like I will be doing so reading in the near future.

Wow, you guys know your stuff!
Many thanks!

I recently acquired this French wine tasting cup. The hallmark looks like an 'E' and 'S' on either side of a mark (minerva head? or perhaps rooster's head?) with the letters 'Ste' above and what looks like 'TT' below. It is decorated on the handle with the "Confrerie des Chevaliers du Tastevin&...
