专家说明

Fabergé started working closely with the Imperial Stroganov School in 1900, when the workshop won a gold medal at the Paris exhibition for its famous ceramics. Artists at the Imperial Stroganov School experimented with new forms and glazes. Their close collaboration with Fabergé's silversmiths in Moscow resulted in the production of magnificent decorative and functional items like the present lot.

A comparable kovsh, shaped as a duck and decorated with brown and mustard glaze, is part of the collection of the House of Hesse, see Exhibition catalogue, Fabergé: Geschenke der Zarenfamilie, Eichenzell, 2016, p. 149, no. 118.
