The result is a permanent black-and-silver contrast that does not peel or fade.

At the end of the handle, where the hand holds the spoon, there is a floral ornament in the niello technique: a black inlay that is melted into the engraved lines, sanded flush, and polished – like ink in silver.

It is a piece for midsummer birthdays that, instead of disappearing into a drawer after the first festive dessert, remains on display in the cabinet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: 925 sterling silver, gold-plated, with niello inlay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eLength approx. 168 mm, width approx. 39 mm (bowl)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eWeight approx. 46 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eZodiac sign: Leo (July 23 – August 22)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eElement: Fire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eFineness: 925 sterling silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eGift box included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaterial and workmanship\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe spoon is crafted from 925 sterling silver and is gold-plated on the bowl and stem. In the bowl, you can see the lion with its flowing mane and upright posture, the classic depiction of the zodiac sign — executed as a fine engraving and filled with gold so that the motif stands out clearly against the silvery shimmering base of the bowl. The entire stem bears the same warm gold tone. At the end of the handle, where the hand holds the spoon, there is a floral ornament in the niello technique: a black inlay that is fused into the engraved lines, sanded flat, and polished — like ink in silver. No paint, no coating: the inlay will last for generations and tends to deepen rather than fade with polishing. This niello technique has its roots in the silversmithing of Veliky Ustyug, first mentioned in writing in 1683; the SevChern manufactory continues this tradition to this day. 925 sterling silver consists of 92.5% fine silver.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAstrologically, Leo stands for charisma, generosity, and a natural flair for making an entrance. These traits resonate in the motif without the need for words: the Nemean Lion from the Hercules legends was considered invulnerable until Hercules defeated it.

It is particularly suitable as a gift for those born under the sign of Leo, for midsummer birthdays. It is also suitable for a confirmation, an anniversary, as a wedding gift for a couple with this zodiac sign, or as a godchild gift with a personal touch. People who refuse to accept half-measures will find in this spoon a gift that lasts beyond the occasion — as a collector's item in their own zodiac series or as the start of a complete cutlery set with the same motif.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eEngraving and SilberVerse card\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe bowl already bears the gold-plated zodiac symbol, the stem is fully gold-plated, and the end of the handle shows the niello ornament — an additional engraving would damage these three surfaces and is therefore not part of the standard service.

This technique is known as niello—popularly called \"ink in silver\"—and has been used for around 3,000 years. It is neither a lacquer nor a print, but a chemical-physical bond with the silver that remains even with daily use.

Only when the lid is lifted do the three glasses appear, standing side by side in the bowl with their gold rims facing up. The same motif adorns all four pieces: heavy clusters of grapes hang from vines, framed by leaves, while gold surfaces gleam against the dark niello background. In Russian ornamentation, grapes have long symbolised abundance and enjoyment — a motif that suits a shot set just as well as a wine goblet. On the casket, the pattern covers the entire bowl and lid; every grape, leaf and vine is hand-engraved into the silver and fired with the niello compound, while the gold accents are applied separately.

Instead, a dense network of blossoms, leaves, and tendrils spreads across the entire bowl, each line engraved into the silver by hand, the black niello alloy subsequently melted into the grooves by flame and chemically-physically bonded with the silver. Between the black tendrils, the gold shines through like light through a canopy of leaves. This principle of full-surface engraving holds its own weight in Russian silversmithing: there is no empty field where uncertainty could hide; every square centimeter of the bowl is designed. This makes this chalice particularly elaborate. The interior is completely gilded with fine gold, as are the rim and base ring; this imparts no metallic taste to the beverage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eUse and occasions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith approx. 230 ml, this goblet offers room for a generous red wine, a full-bodied white wine, or a balm that needs space to breathe. At Ø 76 mm, it is wider than the smaller chalices in the line, giving the wine more surface area to unfold. On a festive table, at a Christmas dinner or New Year's Eve party, this goblet becomes an eye-catcher — not through volume, but because the dense ornamentation casts shadows in the candlelight and shifts between silver and gold depending on the angle of the light. For a silver wedding anniversary, 925 silver is a natural gift choice, and for the wedding itself, such a chalice is a toast that will be remembered; can also be ordered as a pair by arrangement. For collectors of Russian silversmithing, the full-surface ornament without a central motif is an instantly recognizable hallmark of quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eEngraving and SilberVerse card\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngraving is possible upon inspection — the bowl is completely covered with ornamentation, but there is often room on the base or stem for initials or a date.

For Father’s Day or Mother’s Day, a child’s photo in the chalice is more personal than almost any other gift: the child grows, but the photo remains. For a milestone birthday, the memory itself becomes the gift — a photo of the celebrant as a child, as a young person, or as a bride.

The bowl itself is fully gold-plated with 24-karat gold and features the same floral niello filigree as the ferrules, just executed on a larger scale. The precise joining of the wooden handle and the silver ferrule is an additional work step compared to solid silver spoons: the seam must remain invisible under close inspection, and the wood must not have any play within the ferrule. At around 62 grams, the spoon is significantly heavier than an ordinary teaspoon – a direct result of the triple material mix of wood, silver, and gold plating.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eUse and occasions\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Byzantium teaspoon is sold individually because it serves three different purposes.

Those looking to give the line as a gift will find the individual spoon to be a targeted, smaller add-on item for a birthday or family anniversary for someone already familiar with the set.

Wipe the spoon after use with a slightly damp cloth and dry it immediately with a soft cotton cloth. Avoid hot dishwater and the dishwasher – beechwood will swell when exposed to standing moisture, and aggressive cleaning agents will damage the gold plating and black niello inlay.

This connection is chemical-physical in nature, not a lacquer or coating—it is embedded in the silver itself and deepens with each polish. Over this engraving lies a selective gilding with 990 gold, which exclusively covers the free silver surfaces around the niello ornament. This keeps the ornament dark while the background shimmers golden. At the end caps of the ballpoint pen, letter opener, and magnifying glass, there is a cabochon stone as a small colorful finishing touch.

The laurel in the base takes up this idea without emphasizing it obtrusively—in European iconographic tradition, it stands for distinction and dignity.

A continuous niello band with geometric-floral spiral tendrils runs along the base. Niello is not a paint or lacquer, but a dark silver alloy that is melted into engraved depressions and permanently bonded with the silver. The band visually grounds the piece and ensures a balanced relationship between gold, silver, and black. The dish is made of solid 925 sterling silver, not silver-plated and not coated, and is hallmarked.

As a decorative object, the dish also works without contents, on a sideboard, in a glass display cabinet, or on a mantelpiece. For a wedding, it is a gift that conveys the message: This beginning deserves a piece that endures. For a round anniversary, golden wedding anniversary, or 60th birthday, it suits people for whom ordinary attention is not enough.

Niello is a dark silver-sulfur alloy that is melted into the engraved lines over an open flame, bonding permanently with the silver; it does not fade, but becomes more contrasted with each polishing. The chessboard itself is the lid of a wooden chest, decorated at the edges and corners with eight hand-engraved silver appliqués: four corner fittings in a curved rocaille style, two diamond-shaped center ornaments with niello ornamentation, and two narrow gold strips that frame the board like a picture frame.

The central area belongs to light: polished 925 sterling silver brought to a mirror finish, without engraving or ornamentation. This blank space is intentional—it reflects glasses, decanters, and light, making the room feel more expansive. The frame is the opposite: dense, warm, and animated. Gold-plated 925 silver, engraved and chased with classic baroque patterns—acanthus leaves, volutes, and floral motifs. Embedded in the engravings is niello, a black-blue, matte inlay that provides the gold with its contour. Without niello, the gold-plated frame would blur into itself; with niello, every vine, leaf, and volute gains a clear definition. The edge is finished with a structured outer border featuring a chased bead pattern—a classic signature of Russian silversmithing. The 0.5-micron galvanic gold plating is the final step: it is applied only after the frame's engraving and chasing are complete, permanently sealing the engraved lines against oxidation. Niello itself is one of the oldest finishing techniques in goldsmithing—its history spans over 3,000 years and remains vibrant in the Russian silversmithing tradition to this day.

Behind them, a wide landscape opens up: gentle hills, clusters of trees on the horizon, and stylized clouds above. The scene conveys movement without being hectic — the animals are captured at a gallop, yet the composition remains calm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe troika, the Russian three-horse carriage, is one of the central images of this culture. It represents freedom and vastness; in the final chapter of \"Dead Souls,\" Gogol turned it into a symbol for an entire country. On this tray, it becomes a motif that does more than just decorate—it makes a statement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow the black enters the silver\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNiello is one of the oldest silversmithing techniques and has become rare in Europe. Imagine it as ink in silver: first, the masters engrave the motif by hand into the surface; then, the dark mixture is filled into the recesses and fused in an open flame. Afterward, it is polished — with great care, as too much removes the niello, while too little leaves the contrast dull.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is neither a print nor a coating. The black is part of the metal, permanently bonded, and becomes more contrast-rich rather than paler with every polish. With hand engraving, every stroke has only one chance: if a line is misplaced, the master must begin again. Because each master has their own personal signature in their linework, every piece bears a fine personal touch — even with the same motif.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe tray is crafted by SevChern in Veliky Ustyug, where the art of niello has been documented in writing since 1683. We call these artworks \u003cem\u003eNielloa\u003c\/em\u003e in our shop; niello is the technique, SevChern is the manufacturer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThree zones playing in harmony\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe tray is clearly structured. The outermost zone is the loudest: encircling acanthus rocaille, worked in relief from the silver and fully gold-plated, with four symmetrical cartouches at the ends of the axes. This is followed by a broad, calm ring zone — also gold-plated but without relief, guiding the eye inward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe center is intentionally cooler: an oval image medallion in a natural, matte silver finish, without gilding. It is precisely this contrast that creates the effect — warm gold on the outside, quiet silver on the inside, and the dark drawing within. The gilding exists as an electrolytic layer of 0.5 microns on the silver and remains durable as long as it is not mechanically abraded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhen such a tray is the right gift\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 415 millimeters in length and nearly one kilogram in weight, this is not a piece to be handed over casually. Given as a wedding gift, it will remain on the couple's table long after other things have been forgotten. For a milestone birthday or company anniversary, it carries the weight of the occasion in the truest sense of the word. It works equally well as a prestigious corporate gift or as a collector's item of Russian silversmithing — and it is functional: as a display surface for glasses, a carafe, or pastries in a festive setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eEngraving and SilberVerse card\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA personal engraving is possible upon review. SevChern examines each piece individually to determine which form and placement of engraving are possible alongside the already engraved medallion and will provide you with specific proposals. Additionally, you can choose a SilberVerse card: 15 × 10 cm in landscape format, designed free of charge, personally written for this gift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHand wash with warm water and mild dish soap, dried with a soft cloth. No dishwasher, no abrasive powder. Remove any tarnish on the silver gently with a silver polishing cloth — take care to avoid the gold-plated zones, as gilding is more delicate than the silver itself.

The SevChern studio still works in this tradition today; each carafe goes through more than 15 work steps from the silver plate to the finished piece.

The cup features a dense golden floral ornament that grows three-dimensionally out of the silver — repoussé technique: the silver sheet is worked from the reverse with countless hammer blows until petals, stems, and leaves bulge and curve. This is not engraving, but sculpture, and it is considered one of the most demanding techniques a silversmith can master. Above this lies a niello band with medallions and geometric patterns, and below it, the knob with red garnet cabochons, individually set and glowing dark red. The inside of the goblet is completely gilded — gold that protects the contents and shimmers warmly in the light. The set also includes a plate that serves as a coaster, lid, and stage for the inscription: the toast runs in a circle around it in Old Russian script, with a figure in the center that visually captures the saying.

It suits people who enjoy celebrating with pleasure and self-irony, as well as diplomatic or business occasions where a humorous yet noble gift is intended to be remembered. For lovers of Russian culture, this set combines several traditions at once: mead as the forgotten drink of princes, niello and repoussé techniques from Veliky Ustyug, Old Russian script, and garnets as a color accent.

At official memorial ceremonies and farewell events, it serves as a trophy of honor whose size and weight lend it a dignified presentation.

The base repeats the ornament on a smaller scale and rounds off the composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eUsage and occasions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis stemmed glass is intended for mindful enjoyment — for cognac, fine liqueurs, dessert wine or balsam, sipped in small quantities, not in a hurry. It fits the after-dinner study moment, an evening by the fireplace with a good book, a tasting among connoisseurs, or a display case where special pieces find their place. As a gift, the glass is suitable for anniversaries, milestone birthdays, and business occasions where an object should say more than a bottle alone. Anyone who knows someone who does not drink cognac casually, but celebrates it, will find the perfect vessel for it here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eEngraving and SilberVerse card\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePersonal engraving is possible upon review — the suitable surface will be coordinated with the workshop, depending on where the ornament leaves space. On request, we include a photo-format SilberVerse card (15 × 10 cm landscape) — individually designed to suit the occasion and free of charge. It turns the gift into a personal gesture that goes beyond the glass itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClean the stemmed glass exclusively by hand — lukewarm water, a mild dish soap and a soft cloth are sufficient. Do not rub the gold-plated surfaces; gently polish them to preserve the fine gold layer. Niello does not require any special care but should be protected from harsh cleaners — the contrast deepens with every careful polish rather than fading. A silver polishing cloth is sufficient for the shine of the polished surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is this glass best suited for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor cognac, fine liqueurs, dessert wine or balsam — that is, for spirits that are drunk in small quantities and with leisure.
