LARGE RHODONITE AND SILVER TABLE LAMP. NEDMIROV-KOLODKIN WORKSHOP RUSSIA, MOSCOW, CIRCA 1890

A grand table lamp crafted in the Moscow workshop of Nedmirov-Kolodkin around 1890, representing a rare and expressive example of late Russian Neo-Empire aesthetics, uniting noble 84-standard silver with a monolithic rhodonite column. The tall triangular shaft of vivid Ural rhodonite rises above an architecturally formed base enriched with cast silver ornaments: acanthus leaves, scrolls, cartouches and garlands, executed with the workshop’s characteristic refinement of modelling and delicacy of relief.

A later emerald-green pleated shade completes the silhouette and is adorned with silver wreaths, ribbons and ornamental elements echoing the decorative vocabulary of late nineteenth-century Russian Neo-Empire. The lamp belongs to the category of representative interior objects intended for formal studies and salons, where the interplay of silver and rhodonite accentuated splendour and status.

Hallmarks: Full Cyrillic mark «Недмиров-Колодкинъ» Supplier to the Court of His Imperial Majesty. Small workshop mark in a rhombus «ННК». Assay mark «Л.О» above the date «1890» (unidentified Moscow assaymaster active 1890–1895). Silver standard mark «84». Moscow town mark with Saint George slaying the dragon facing left.
