Simple antique silver pint mug with pear-shaped body on a discrete collet foot. The C-shaped handle is a very good size, comfortable to hold, and it would make a fine coming-of-age gift for a young man. It's simplicity means that it is perfect for engraving.
A silver mug is a lidless drinking vessel with a handle and English silver mugs were made in graduated sizes; the most common being the quart, pint, half pint and gill. Gallon and half gallon mugs like this example appear from time to time.
