- Lot Description
Eastern Europe, Russia, St. Petersburg, ca. 19th to early 20th century CE. A striking gilt silver goblet boasting an ornate enamel decoration in hues of sky blue, maroon, tan, peach, emerald, cobalt, and pearly white. The gorgeous vessel features a discoid foot that raises to a narrow neck with a rounded central ridge, and a long, cylindrical body that expands to a broad, circular rim. Beautifully adorned with intricate motifs of hearts, fleurs de lis, quatrefoils, and many other geometric and vegetal designs, the enameled exterior also boasts two sizable Russian imperial eagles near the top of the vessel and a decorative band of Cyrillic writing around the rim with four words, one of which translating to "drink", all separated by a floral pattern. Metal quality: 92.23% silver and 0.7% gold gilding; Size: 2.75" in diameter x 5.95" H (7 cm x 15.1 cm); weight: 248.5 grams
The maker's mark on the base in Cyrillic is for Gabriel and Michael Grachev from early 19th century to early 20th century. Above the mark is a double-headed eagle hallmark, which indicates that the silversmiths were appointed to the court. Below both of these is another mark with the number 84 and an anchor and a grapnel crossing a scepter signifying that the object is at least 87.5% silver and was made in St. Petersburg after 1741.
