Beaker from the Imperial Yacht Standart
Imperial Glass Factory, Russia, late 19th – early 20th century
Glass, engraved
Dimensions: 10.7 x 5.5 cm.
A rare beaker from the table service of the Imperial Yacht Standart, engraved with the imperial ensign depicting the double-headed eagle of the Russian Empire. The vessel reflects the refined simplicity and functional elegance characteristic of objects created for the personal use of the Imperial family.
The yacht Standart was built in Denmark by order of Emperor Nicholas II and launched in 1895. It became the Emperor’s favorite ship and a floating residence of the Imperial family for over two decades. Lavishly fitted with cherry, walnut, and ash woods, the yacht embodied understated luxury and impeccable craftsmanship. Following the Revolution, the Standart was converted into a minelayer, later into a floating barracks, and ultimately served as a target vessel in the 1960s.

Russian Pitcher with Hunting Trophy Reliefs
Estimate: 1500-2000€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.
