The flower motif — meaning

White blossoms traditionally stand for purity, sincerity, and a new beginning—a motif that is suitable for many occasions without being limited to just one. On this cup, the blossoms appear in a bold contrast against dark green, accompanied by delicate blue leaves and fine gold tendrils. A floral image that does not intrude but invites—perfect for a gift intended to express thoughtfulness.

Material and craftsmanship

The porcelain cup originates from the Imperial Porcelain Manufactory in St. Petersburg and bears the manufactory's seal on the bottom as proof of quality. The holder is made of 925 sterling silver, gold-plated copper, and colorful enamel. Through the electroforming process—where silver is built up in a galvanic bath on a wax model that is subsequently removed—the holder remains pleasantly lightweight while maintaining high stability. The floral pattern is created using the enamel filigree technique: the finest twisted silver wires form the relief, along which the color is applied by hand. Since every enamel design is created manually, each cup differs from the next in small details.

Usage and occasions

This cup is suitable as a gift for a wedding, a milestone birthday, or as a collector's item for those with an appreciation for Russian silver and enamel art. It is as appropriate for parents, grandparents, or as a special corporate gift as it is for anniversaries, retirement, or other commemorative days—wherever a gift should be more than just a functional object.

Engraving and SilberVerse card

Engraving on the cup holder is not possible, as the delicate enamel design does not allow for additional processing. As a personal addition, we offer an individually designed SilberVerse card in 15 × 10 cm format upon request—with your desired text, tailored to the occasion and recipient, free of charge. Simply indicate your request in the order field.

Care

Clean the cup exclusively by hand with a mild detergent, without abrasive agents. It is best to dab the enamel surfaces with a soft cloth rather than rubbing them. We advise against using a dishwasher to ensure the long-term protection of the enamel and gilding.

Frequently asked questions

Is every cup with this flower motif the same?

No, the delicate enamel design does not allow for engraving. As an alternative, we recommend the personal SilberVerse card with your desired text.

Is the product dishwasher-safe?
