Scandinavian Silver Beaker

Take it all with a grain of salt as I’m no silver expert but this appears to be from Sweden and made of solid silver about 1840 even though it is a 17th/18th century form.It is trumpet shaped with lots of engraved wriggle work, beading and some repousse. It has several initials. It weighs 12.75 Troy oz.
