SET OF SIX CLOISONNÉ ENAMEL SILVER TEASPOONS IN A PRESENTATION CASE. GRACHEV BROTHERS RUSSIA, SAINT PETERSBURG, LAST QUARTER OF THE 19TH CENTURY

A set of six silver teaspoons, produced in the workshop of the Imperial Court Supplier firm Grachev Brothers in the last quarter of the 19th century, decorated with polychrome cloisonné enamel, represents a characteristic example of Saint Petersburg jewellery art of its period. The composition and decorative language reflect the emergence of Russian Art Nouveau, distinguished by structural clarity of form, emphasis on material, and an organic synthesis of function and artistic expression. A defining feature of the spoons is the original square-section handle, which conveys a sense of solidity, functional logic, and restrained plastic expression. The spoons are housed in a wooden presentation case with velvet-lined interior.Hallmarks: Maker’s mark “Grachev”; silver fineness mark “88”; master’s mark “AP”.Dimensions: Length of each spoon approx. 14 cm.Weight: Total weight 174 g.Condition: Good. Enamel well preserved, without losses or cracks. Minor signs of age consistent with period use.Provenance: Private collection.

LARGE VASE WITH BRONZE MOUNTS AND PAINTED DECORATION “THE TRIUMPH OF VENUS” FRANCE, SECOND HALF OF THE 19TH CENTURY

LARGE VASE WITH BRONZE MOUNTS AND PAINTED DECORATION “THE TRIUMPH OF VENUS” FRANCE, SECOND HALF OF THE 19TH CENTURY

A monumental vase combining gilt bronze and painted porcelain, representing a striking example of French decorative art of the Second Empire and the Historicist period. The oval bowl with a rich emerald-green ground is adorned with a central painted composition depicting the allegorical scene “The Triumph of Venus”, executed in the spirit of 18th century academic mythological painting. On the reverse appears an exquisite floral bouquet rendered with refined naturalism and delicate chromatic nuances.The porcelain body is mounted within an elaborate architectural framework of finely chased gilt bronze with openwork Rocaille ornamentation. The handles curve in dynamic vegetal scrolls with mascarons and ornamental cartouches. The upper rim forms an airy gallery of scrolling foliage and stylised acanthus leaves. The base is conceived as a ceremonial pedestal with a baluster stem and a four-sided support, richly decorated with relief elements and symmetrical scrollwork.The artistic conception unites elements of Neo-Rococo and Neo-Baroque, characteristic of Parisian bronze workshops of the second half of the 19th century. Stylistic features and the quality of porcelain painting suggest a connection with the traditions of the Sèvres manufactory, renowned for producing grand decorative vases and mantel ornaments for aristocratic residences.Dimensions: height 38 cm; width 54 cm; depth 32 cm.Condition: Good. Gilding even and well preserved. Minor wear to the base. No deformations, cracks, restorations or traces of active use.
