✅ SOLVED Miniature Lead tea cup with flowers on it. Any guesses on age?

[RatherBeDigging]

I'll get more pictures up soon. Dug this yesterday at a spot my friend found after his car broke down there. Go figure. He's pretty effective at getting the obvious targets out but often skips the nickel signals. Went into to rid the ground of those dreaded nickel signals for an hour and out pops this. Has some weight to it so probably lead. Handle is gone. But it's definitely a mini tea cup. Looks a bit big to be from a doll house. Any suggestions on age?

Might be pewter or pot metal, as well. Below is a set made in France in the late 1800s/early 1900's.

Charlie beat me to it. I was going to say probably pewter and European?

Definitely wasn't a high tone. 14 15 on the equinox so pewter is possible as well. It's definitely dense material. Definitely a child's toy though?

I found one last year near an old seller hole. The house dated to the late 19th century.

It doesn't see. To have much shape? An early game board piece? No��Europeans don't drink out of cups so small. I am divorced from a Frenchman.
