I just received a cool little set of Ickle Pickle Mini Brass cups from Epiphany.  They are great little cups (and only the second set of brass cups I have.)

I don't know how they compare with the current run (perhaps someone could let me know please?) but these have a reasonable heft to them being only 2 1/4" tall. Another plusisthat they really don't look like they could cover a golf ball so they are quite deceptive.

All in all I really like these little cups.

I posted a few pics if anyone wants to check them out.

I'm not usually a fan of single beaded cups but these little fellas are really growing on me....

Visiting this old post, I thought that I would share some photos of some Ickle Pickle Mini Copper Cups purchased around the same time Bri purchased his Brass set (he beat me to them... LOL).

They were originally coated with a lacquer that I removed and they formed a patina nicely. At one time Ickle Pickle spun some great Cups in copper and brass... it’s a shame they just spin in aluminum these days, their Goblet like Chop Cup would look cool in Copper.
