Russian Silver and Blue Opaline Glass Paperweight. 
Moscow, 1874
. Bakhmetiev Glass Factory
. Cast silver, opaline glass.
Dimensions: 5.2 x 12.8 x 8.8 cm.

A luminous blue opaline glass paperweight, its surface inlaid with scrolling silver ornament and surmounted by a finely cast silver blossom. Produced at the renowned Bakhmetiev (later Никольский) Glass Factory, it reflects the Russian tradition of elevating glassmaking to the level of decorative art.
The factory was founded in 1764 in the Penza province by Alexei Ivanovich Bakhmetev, with the permission of Catherine the Great. Despite being almost destroyed during the Pugachev uprising, the enterprise was rebuilt and by the 1830s had become one of the leading crystal producers in Russia. Its wares ranged from luxurious cut, engraved and enameled vessels for the nobility and the Imperial Court—earning the right in 1836 to mark production with the state emblem—to high-quality household glass admired for clarity, brilliance, and resonant tone.
Under Prince A. D. Obolensky, who took ownership in 1884, the factory expanded, employing nearly 1,000 workers and establishing schools, a hospital, and even a theater. Generations of master craftsmen, such as the celebrated Vershinin-Protasov family, created virtuoso works, including unique double-layered glasses with miniature landscapes between the walls.
