RUSSIAN SILVER SWEETMEAT BOWL. ERIK AUGUST KOLLIN. ST PETERSBURG, 1887

An elegant Russian silver sweetmeat bowl raised on a high profiled foot and fitted with a movable arched handle, crafted in St Petersburg in 1887 by Erik August Kollin, one of the principal master craftsmen associated with the House of Carl Fabergé.
