13th Artel milk jug

Postby juantotree » Fri May 18, 2018 6:23 am

Hi

I have this milk jug which appears to have the markings of the 13th Artel. My knowledge of Russian silver is limited and particularly so about the work of the different Artels.

The piece looks and feels right to me, but I would be grateful for the opinions of others on the authenticity of the item and also whether it is typical of the type of work produced by this particular Artel. I have shown the marks on the base of the jug and the ones on the handle.

Many Thanks
Martin

I'm not with my books right now, but your creamer looks OK to me.

Hi,
Yes, 13.artel with secondary circular mark.
Compare die stamped embossed decor (lower image) with your creamer.
Regards
