SILVER LETTER OPENER WITH A PEASANT FIGURE, KARL FABERGÉ FIRM, MOSCOW, 1880s

SILVER LETTER OPENER WITH A PEASANT FIGURE, KARL FABERGÉ FIRM, MOSCOW, 1880s

An original silver letter opener crafted by the Karl Fabergé firm in Moscow in the last quarter of the 19th century. The piece represents a rare example of decorative sculpture that combines utilitarian function with artistic expression. The handle is modelled as a Russian peasant chopping a log with an axe. The blade, symbolically continuing as a thinning piece of wood, forms a harmonious extension of the composition. The flat root-textured base serves as a stable stand, allowing the object to be displayed vertically as an independent work of art.Marks: Full Fabergé hallmark beneath the double-headed eagle with the inscription K. FABERGÉ, assay mark 84 with the Moscow city coat of arms. Engraved date: 2 April 1881.Dimensions: Length 21.5 cm.Weight: 228 g.Condition: Excellent, with a light patina of age, no deformations or restorations.Provenance: Private European collection.

RUSSIAN PRESENTATION SILVER KOVSH IN ART NOUVEAU STYLE. ALEXANDER VYAKOVA. FIRM OF C. FABERGÉ SAINT PETERSBURG, EARLY 20TH CENTURY

RUSSIAN PRESENTATION SILVER KOVSH IN ART NOUVEAU STYLE. ALEXANDER VYAKOVA. FIRM OF C. FABERGÉ SAINT PETERSBURG, EARLY 20TH CENTURY

An outstanding presentation kovsh executed in the early 20th century in the Art Nouveau style by the silversmith Alexander Vyakova for the Saint Petersburg branch of the firm of C. Fabergé. The form of the kovsh is inspired by the silhouette of an ancient Russian ladya, interpreted through the flowing lines and sculptural plasticity characteristic of Russian Art Nouveau. This national romantic imagery reflects the broader cultural revival of the period and finds visual parallels in the decorative world associated with Ivan Bilibin.The elongated body emphasizes a horizontal composition, reinforcing the symbolic reference to a ceremonial vessel. Along the sides are applied shield-shaped ornaments set with natural cabochon-cut jasper, introducing refined color accents and enhancing the decorative rhythm of the piece. The handle is sculpturally modeled to resemble the stern and rudder of an ancient vessel, underscoring the historical symbolism and presentation character of the kovsh.This object belongs to the category of ceremonial silver, intended for official gifts or representative collections, and exemplifies the exceptional artistic design and technical excellence characteristic of Fabergé silver from the early 20th century.Marks: Maker’s mark “C. Fabergé” beneath the double-headed eagle, confirming production by the Saint Petersburg branch; Saint Petersburg assay mark of 1908-1917 with the letter “a,” a woman’s head in kokoshnik turned to the right, and the fineness mark “84” within an oval shield; master’s mark “AW” in Latin letters corresponding to the silversmith Alexander Vyakova; Fabergé inventory number “18458.”Dimensions: Height 11 cm, width 13 cm, length 28 cm.Weight: 625 g.Condition: Good. Silver with natural patina. Jasper inlays intact. Minor traces of age consistent with period.Provenance: Private European collection.
