MINIATURE SILVER KOVSH BY FABERGÉ WITH CLOISONNÉ AND PLIQUE-À-JOUR

A miniature silver kovsh created in the Moscow workshop of Feodor Rückert for the firm of Carl Fabergé, representing a refined example of early 20th-century Russian jeweller’s art. The compact and intimate scale underscores its collectible character and its place among finely executed objects of small decorative form. The rounded body is covered in rich polychrome cloisonné enamel on silver. The ornamental composition is structured around stylised floral rosettes with amber-brown centres encircled by deep blue enamel beads, alternating with symmetrical white and lilac petals accented in green. The sky-blue ground enhances the decorative unity of the design and lends the composition the lightness characteristic of the Russian Modern style. Fine wire partitions create a precise graphic structure, highlighting the virtuosity of execution. The handle, formed as a flat plaque, is decorated with geometric motifs. Triangular elements filled with translucent plique-à-jour enamel and circular accents in deep blue and emerald tones contrast vividly against the dark oxidised background. The combination of cloisonné and plique-à-jour enamel demonstrates the high technical mastery and distinctive style of Rückert’s workshop, renowned for its collaboration with the House of Fabergé.
