Large Russian silver cup. Ekvist Carl Gustav. St. Petersburg, mid-19th century.

Large Russian silver cup, created by master Ekvist Carl Gustav in the mid-19th century, amazes with its fine workmanship and rich decorative decoration. The design of the cup glorifies the art of winemaking: graceful gilded garlands of grapevine with bunches of grapes are harmoniously intertwined with figures of music-making nymphs, creating an atmosphere of antique sophistication. Rocaille motifs with winged horses and flowerpots add expressiveness and dynamics to the composition. The handles of the cup, designed in the form of a grapevine, create an effect of sculptural sophistication and refinement, echoing the aesthetics of the classicism style. The massive stem of the cup is decorated with a luxurious rocal gilded plant ornament, where every detail is executed with amazing skill and attention to detail. The internal silver insert emphasizes the practicality of the product, while perfectly complementing its artistic perfection. Hallmarks: The initials CGE in a rectangular shield, indicating the master Ekvist Carl Gustav; The hallmark of the St. Petersburg Assay Office with poorly legible numbers 18?? under the letters A.K., presumably referring to Andrei Antonovich Kovalsky (1827-1856); The sign of the 84th assay value in a rectangular shield, corresponding to the silver standards of the mid-19th century; The coat of arms of St. Petersburg; The French hallmark in the form of the head of Mercury in a round shield; An unknown hallmark with the Latin letters RM. Dimensions: height 27 cm, diameter 18 cm. Weight: 1098 g.
