19 Vintage Fancy Metallic Foil Candy/Nut Cups

Add sparkle to your table setting! These were purchased by my Mom in the 1950s but never used. Typically seen at bridal or baby showers, holding nuts or pastel after-dinner mints. Silver on the outside, color metallic on the inside: 5 blue, 5 green, 5 pink, and 4 gold. These can be re-used, depending on minimal handling. “Merrilei, N.Y.” is engraved on each bottom – the American Merri-Lei Corporation was a leading supplier of novelty items from Brooklyn, NY. Note that these cups are rare. Excellent condition, stored in a box. Bottom diameter= 1” Top diameter= 2.75”
