Here we have a wonderful museum quality open salt cellar with spoon made of 84 gilded silver and decorated with shaded cloisonne enamel by Russian goldsmith Feodor Ruckert* who had been working with Carl Faberge from1887.
This salt cellar and the spoon are in excellent condition. Beautiful vibrant colors on ivory color background.*Feodor Ivanovich Rückert, Russian silver- and goldsmith of German origin, Faberge work-master. Born in Moscow in 1840. Worked with Carl Faberge from 1887. His mark Ф.Р. (F.R. in Russian Cyrillic) can be found on cloisonne enamel objects made in Moscow, sold independently or by Faberge (from Wikipedia).The cellar is hallmarked with the goldsmith\'s initials in Cyrillic \"ФР\" = \"FR\" and the first \"kokoshnik\" mark, 84 Imperial Russian silver standard, which allows us to date this set to 1896 - 1908. The cellar is 3.5 cm (1.38\") in diameter and 1.8 cm tall (0.71\"); the spoon is 6 cm (2.36\") long by 1.4 cm (0.55\") wide.
I don\'t see any enamel lost, maybe except on the spoon; there is some unevenness on background; see photo 9. If you need additional photos, please let me know. I did not do any cleaning, would leave it to the expert.Extremely rare find of the whole set of such an outstanding master and in such good condition. Enjoy!
