Details & craftsmanship of the Tsar's Festival Silver Box

The 925 sterling silver carriage box is meticulously handcrafted. First, the body is formed from 925 sterling silver, then ornaments and scenes are hand-engraved. These engravings are filled with niello, creating the characteristic black and silver contrast familiar from the Tsar's Feast Collection. Gilded contours, trim, and wheel components add warm accents and accentuate the relief structures.

Several gemstones – set as delicate cabochons – mark the wheel hubs and the top of the carriage. They underscore the character of a unique piece, consciously created for connoisseurs and lovers of classic silversmithing. Each box is hallmarked and individually inspected before leaving the workshop.
