This saucer, crafted from 925 sterling silver, features the SAKURA cherry blossom motif as a hand-engraved niello design, placed as a floral branch on the gilded rim of the matte silver surface. With a diameter of 130 mm and weighing 115 g, it serves as a serene foundation for a piala or teacup.

Material and Craftsmanship
The cherry blossom branch is hand-engraved into the silver and filled with niello—a black inlay that is melted into the engraved lines, ground flush, and polished—like ink in silver. Sakura, Japanese for cherry blossom, represents fleeting beauty and the short, intense bloom of spring. On this saucer, the motif has been translated into the Russian niello tradition: the branch sits as a clear accent on the rim, while the wide, matte silver surface remains intentionally calm. The gilded edge frames the motif, bringing a warm gold tone to the silver and niello black.
Usage and Occasions
As a coffee or tea saucer, this flat, wide piece holds espresso cups, mocha bowls, or a piala securely and steadily. It pairs with the 94 mm diameter piala SW10444, creating the classic image of Russian and Central Asian tea culture—the handleless piala with the saucer as a resting foundation beneath it. For a wedding, the Sakura motif signifies a new beginning worthy of attention; for collectors of Russian silver art, the saucer provides an entry into the SAKURA collection; and for tea lovers, it is a piece that can be used daily without losing its impact.
Engraving and SilberVerse Card
Engraving is possible upon review; we will coordinate the suitable area with the workshop. Upon request, we can include a personal SilberVerse card in 15 x 10 cm photo format, custom-designed and free of charge.
Care
Hand wash only with lukewarm water and mild dish soap; do not use a dishwasher, ultrasonic cleaner, or silver dip bath, as these methods can damage the gilding and niello inlay. A soft silver polishing cloth is sufficient for the polished silver surfaces. Store dry and preferably in the gift box.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this saucer fit the SAKURA piala?
Yes. The piala and saucer feature the same cherry blossom motif and the same gilding; the piala measures 94 mm and the saucer 130 mm in diameter.
Can the saucer be used daily?
Yes. 925 sterling silver is robust enough for regular use; the only important requirement is hand washing without a dishwasher.
What does the Sakura motif mean on Russian silver?
Sakura is Japanese for cherry blossom and represents fleeting beauty and new beginnings. On this saucer, the motif was translated into a Russian silversmithing technique via hand-engraved niello.
