Jug in the form of a kumanets (kalach), Traditional Russian style.

Circular body with central perforation, on a tall foot, with handle and elongated stopper. Decoration includes ornamental bands and stylized vine scrolls with leaves and grape clusters, highlighted with delicate geometric patterns.
This piece represents a refined line of Historicism at the Imperial Glass Manufactory—traditional Russian taste executed with transparent enamels on clear tinted glass. The luminous palette was achieved by the technology of transparent enamels, developed by chemist D. A. Kartsev in the 1830s. Mostly works of this kind were painted under the supervision of I. I. Murinov, head of the painting workshop from 1873 through the 1890s. A kumanets (in the form of kalach) is a traditional disc-shaped vessel for water and wine, widespread in Ukraine; this glass example follows that form.

One goblet features children playing cerceau — a hoop game that originated in France under Louis XIV. According to legend, the game symbolized devotion: a marquis caught his wife’s thrown ring on his sword, winning back her favor. The pastime became fashionable among the Russian nobility, especially among women and children, and represented grace and agility.
