SILVER SALT CELLAR IN THE FORM OF A THRONE. MASTER P. P. MILYUKOV RUSSIAN EMPIRE, MOSCOW, 1895

SILVER SALT CELLAR IN THE FORM OF A THRONE. MASTER P. P. MILYUKOV RUSSIAN EMPIRE, MOSCOW, 1895

An elegant silver salt cellar, executed in the workshop of Pyotr Pavlovich Milyukov in 1895 and conceived in the form of a throne with a high openwork back and a hinged front panel, represents a characteristic example of Moscow silverwork of the late 19th century. The artistic composition is based on an architectural metaphor of a ceremonial chair, lending the object a symbolic and dignified presence while preserving its utilitarian function.The rectangular body stands on profiled feet. The front, side, and rear panels are decorated with engraved geometrized ornamentation built on symmetry, zigzag lines, and interlaced motifs characteristic of Historicism and the Neo-Russian style. The high back is executed in pierced openwork technique with vegetal ornament and a central circular medallion.The hinged front panel bears an engraved inscription: “Without salt and bread, half the meal is missing”, rendered in a stylized Cyrillic script. This proverbial phrase emphasizes the object’s connection to Russian dining traditions and imparts a pronounced symbolic and likely gift-related character.The interior of the bowl retains traces of original gilding, traditionally applied to protect silver from the corrosive effects of salt. The quality of execution and precision of engraving attest to the high professional standards of a Moscow workshop of the period.Hallmarks: Full maker’s mark “P. Milyukov”; Moscow Assay Office mark with the date “1895”; State assay mark “84” with the Moscow city emblem (St. George).Dimensions: Height: 9 cm. Width: 8 cm. Depth: 5.5 cm.Weight: 68 g.Provenance: Private collection.
