Goblet 925 Silver Niello Pobeda Victory — gilded 165 ml

"Победа" - Victory. The word is inscribed in golden Cyrillic script on the bowl of this goblet, flanked by a five-pointed star and the black and orange stripes of the St. George's ribbon in niello. On the reverse, an Eternal Flame burns in the medallion - the symbol of remembrance for all who did not return. 925 sterling silver, gold-plated, 165 ml, weighing approximately 185–190 g in hand. A goblet that does not celebrate, but remembers - and carries a meaning that goes beyond a mere drinking vessel when toasting on May 9th or at any commemorative occasion.

Two sides, one message — Pobeda and Eternal Flame

This goblet has two faces that belong together. On the front: "Победа" in golden script, the star, and the St. George's ribbon — symbols deeply rooted in Russian and post-Soviet culture. They stand for victory, for courage, and for gratitude towards those who fought.

On the reverse: the Eternal Flame (Вечный Огонь) — the universal symbol of remembrance that burns in a central location in every Russian city. Executed in niello hand-engraving, with golden flame tips rising from the black ornament. Together, both sides tell a complete story: victory and remembrance, pride and silence.

The same bulbous chalice shape as the Fan-Medallion Stem Glass — Ø 78 mm, H 139 mm, baluster stem with niello-decorated base. Gold-plated interior, golden rim, golden foot ring. But the motif makes the difference: where the fan chalice is decorative, this goblet is symbolic.

For what occasions this goblet is intended

Victory Day (May 9th): In Russian culture, May 9th is the most important memorial day — the day World War II ended in Europe. Families gather, remember grandfathers and great-grandfathers, raise a glass and remain silent for a moment. This goblet is made for precisely this moment. Not a party glass, but a memorial chalice.

Gift for veterans and veteran families: For people who have a personal connection to the war generations. The Pobeda goblet is a piece that stands on the shelf and says: "We do not forget."

Birthday of a veteran or contemporary witness: For the milestone birthday of an elderly family member who experienced the post-war period — a gift that shows respect without needing words.

Patriotic occasions and honors: For official or private honors, farewells, or memorial ceremonies — a silver goblet with the Pobeda motif is more fitting than any certificate.

Collectors of Russian silversmithing: The Victory motif is part of the SevChern collection and is produced in the same manufactory as all other niello pieces. For collectors, a thematically unique piece.
