Russian Silver at Tiffany

Post by dragonflywink »

Among the items Tiffany retailed late 19th-early 20th century was an assortment of Russian silver. These are pages from their 1893 Blue Book, it's also noted that, "The following list of Russian Silver is very incomplete, and a much larger variety of articles and wider range of prices will be found upon inspection:"

This topic is interesting. I found that some chinese export silver made for Tiffany in late 19th. But i can not find any authentic russian silver made for tiffany in 19th. Is it real or just one dream made by top 2 famous auction houses?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

I can't comment on the Russian silverware sold by Tiffany's in the late 19th-early 20th century period, except to say that with such a vast ranges of wares available that it is perhaps possible that Tiffany's were being supplied by perhaps more than one manufacturer.

As to the silverwares supplied by Wang Hing, details of Tiffany's exclusive mark that was struck on these products can be found within the Wang Hing post in this topic:
