- Lot Description
Eastern Europe, Russia, Imperial period, ca. early to mid-20th century CE. A fine collection of 4 gilt silver, brass, and cloisonne utensils. The first is a brass and gilt spoon with lovely cloisonne upon the backside of the bowl. The handle features a twisted profile with a cloisonne top. It was etiquette to place spoons with their backsides facing up at table settings, an area artisan filled with pretty cloisonne. Next are two 81% silver cocktail forks with gilt and enamel decoration along the handles. Last is an 84% silver sugar cube tong with cloisonne along the handles and basins. These attractive pieces are marked with faint assay and maker marks. Size of spoon: 4.5" L x 0.8" W (11.4 cm x 2 cm); quality of silver: 81% to 84%; total weight of the 3 silver pieces: 30.3 grams.
From the mid-19th century to the early 20th, Russian art of all kinds experienced a renaissance that is known as the Silver Age. Russian artisans were inspired by the Gothic, the Moresque, chinoiserie, the Baroque, the Rococo - all ornate styles replete with scrolling vines and flourishing arches. They combined this with the bright colors and rich ornament of Old Russian applied art to create a unique style.
