I have a great respect for "old things" and have a number of collections. Things were made with a love of craftsmanship and were made to last unlike today. This is a photo of my brass and copper Seer Cups, a traditional unit of volume used in large parts of Asia prior to the middle of the 20th century. From memory I'm missing two of the sizes.

If anyone knows any other information on them, I'd love to hear!!
