|
Reference: S1343
Period: Edward VII
Year: Circa 1900

Price: $ 200.00 Weight: 33 grams Dimensions: 11.5 cm Condition: Good, very small chips and missing enamel, barely noticeable.
Description: A pair of Russian silver and enamel teaspoons, with twisted stems and decorated enamel bowls and stems. These spoons are 88 grade silver as opposed to the commoner 84 grade, and were made in Moskow, as indicated by the delta (triangle) next to the Kokoshnik. The makers mark we believe to be that of Ivan Khlebnikov, an important maker who received the Imperial Warrant, and who specialised in enamel. The hallmarks are small but discernable. (Note: - as we are not experts in Russian silver, we cannot vouch for our identification).
