Russian Pitcher with Hunting Trophy Reliefs

Günther Factory, St. Petersburg, mid-19th century
Faience
Height: 17.7 см.A rare faience pitcher decorated with reliefs of hunting trophies—small game animals—and a handle in the form of a fox peering into the vessel. The design recalls the rustic wares of Bernard Palissy (ca. 1510–1589), the French Renaissance ceramicist celebrated for his naturalistic reliefs of plants and animals.
The Günther factory near St. Petersburg, founded by merchant Fyodor Khristoforovich Günther around 1818, produced a wide range of faience wares, some inspired by Wedgwood. Its pieces were noted for their durability, strong glazes, and ability to withstand heat. The factory remained active under members of the Günther family until the 1860s, after which production ceased.

Makers mark “K. Faberge” with Imperial warrant. Moscow, 1908–1917
Silver, cut crystal
Dimensions: 22 x 30 x16 cmA rare Art Nouveau–style kovsh from the Moscow branch of the House of Fabergé. The crystal bowl, cut with a honeycomb pattern, is mounted in silver and features a sculptural handle in the form of a mermaid holding a garland. The elegant balance of movement and material exemplifies Fabergé’s fascination with nature and myth, as well as the refined technical skill of the firm’s Moscow silversmiths.
The Moscow branch, established in 1901 under the management of Allan Bowe and later overseen by Otto Jarne and Alexander Fabergé, became the largest Fabergé production center in the Russian Empire. Unlike the St. Petersburg workshop, which specialized in court commissions and jewelry, the Moscow branch focused on silver and decorative household objects in both traditional Russian and modern Art Nouveau styles. It was here that many of Fabergé’s most inventive and sculptural silver pieces were created, reflecting the artistic dynamism of pre-revolutionary Moscow.
