Kiddush with a paper cup

Hi,

The cup used for kiddush must be whole and something people would admire. Therefore, a paper cup is not acceptable; it is disposable and not something people admire.

(Rav Moshe Feinstein, Igrot Moshe Orach Chaim 3:39)

[I don't know how Rav Moshe would have addressed an ornate paper cup, protected by some form of laminate such that it could be used multiple times.]

Have a great day,
Mordechai
