Milk jug with gold ground: a round body with a pointed spout
The jug has a spherical body on a foot. Its spout tapers to a point, is smooth and silver and carries no ornament. Opposite sits a flat bow handle with a thumb rest.
Gold shows on the rim, including the rim of the spout, on the handle and on the foot rim. If you look into the jug, you also see the gilded interior. Its home is the SevChern manufactory in Veliky Ustyug, where it is newly made.
Tulips, star flowers and diamond lattice on gold
All around the body grows a pattern of tulips, star flowers and tendrils. Between them lie pomegranate buds and a diamond lattice that links the fields. The engraver's lines draw the diamond lattice across all the fields.
Here the niello lies on a gold-hatched ground: the black drawing stands on gold, not on bare silver, and the diamond lattice links the fields.
The braided line below the rim
Below the neck runs a golden chain band, the braided line. It can be read as a plait that holds the jug together at the rim.
On the handle and the foot the golden accents continue; the foot carries two fine gold lines on matte silver. This keeps the eye on the body. More pieces in this style are shown on the page more niello pieces in 925 silver.
An Easter breakfast with the Tradition line
On Easter morning the table is set, with eggs, yeast pastries and coffee served. The jug pours the milk, and its gold catches the candlelight.
The line includes the Tradition teapot and the Tradition tea cup; they show the same ornament. If you place several pieces of the line side by side, you recognise the ornamentation from piece to piece.
Engraving after checking and the SilberVerse card
Whether an engraving is possible is decided by checking the piece; we then agree with you what can be done.
A greeting for the Easter breakfast works well with the SilberVerse card: names and occasion flow into a verse of its own, at no extra charge as a photo card.
The Tradition jug: briefly answered
Is there a matching sugar bowl?
Yes, the sugar bowl with spoon notch bears the same ornament of the same line.
How big is the jug?
It measures D approx. 81 × H approx. 87 mm and weighs approx. 194 g (according to the manufacturer).
How is the spout shaped?
It tapers to a point and is smooth and silver, without ornament. The rim at the spout is gilded.
How does Tradition differ from Astra Classic?
Here gold lies as a ground beneath the niello, and the braided line is added. The milk jug with gold flower shows matte silver with a golden garland and a gold flower.
How do I care for the jug with gold ground?
Water, a soft cloth, nothing else: this is how you keep the jug clean without rubbing the gold and niello. The article Caring for gilding gives the reasons.
