Schnapps Set 925 Silver Gilt Opulence 8 Pieces

Opulence Spirit Service — Decanter, Six Glasses, and Tray in Gold and Niello

Eight pieces. One motif. Gilded chrysanthemums on deep niello black — on the decanter, on each of the six shot glasses, on the round serving tray. The Opulence spirit service is the most magnificent set in the collection: complete, coordinated, and immediately ready for a grand appearance on the table.

What makes this service special is not its size—it's its consistency. All eight pieces feature the same gilded niello design. The chrysanthemum petals gleam on every single piece: on the barrel-shaped decanter with its golden stopper knob, as well as on the small shot glasses and the flat tray. To place this service on the table is to place an image on the table—told eight times over.

Gold in the Blossoms — The Same Image on Eight Pieces

The niello craftsmanship from Veliky Ustyug thrives on precision and repetition. What makes a single piece beautiful makes a coordinated set irrefutable. In the Opulence collection, this means: the gilded chrysanthemums that form the broad floral frieze on the decanter reappear on every shot glass — smaller, but just as detailed. The tray frames the ensemble with the same motif on a 202 mm wide surface.

The shot glasses are classic 25 ml shot glasses — a sip, well-contained within 35 mm diameter and 42 mm height. This is the format that counts when drinking spirits: not for swirling, but for toasting. Six glasses for six people. Or for a host with style.

All parts bear the hallmark, confirming the 925 fineness and the manufacturer. The total weight of the service is over 800 grams — that alone conveys what you are dealing with.

A Gift That Leaves an Impression

Who gives a complete silver service as a gift? Someone who says: This occasion is worth it. The Opulence spirit service conveys this statement simply by its weight and completeness. It is a gift for people who already have everything — and a symbol for occasions where normal attention is not enough.

For the wedding of a good friend. For the milestone birthday of the boss who built the company. For the company anniversary of a long-standing business partner. For the silver wedding anniversary of parents to whom you cannot say how much their partnership means — but you can show it. The service comes complete in gift packaging and requires no further staging.

If you wish to give the decanter alone, you can find it under Decanters & Carafes. Individual shot glasses from the Opulence line are available in the Silver Shot Glasses collection.

Engraving & SilberVerse Card

Upon request, we can engrave the decanter and glasses with a personal dedication, a date, or a monogram. This makes the service a unique piece — not because there are no others, but because yours is inscribed with your message.

Upon request, we can include a personal SilberVerse card in photo format (10×15 cm) — individually designed, suitable for the occasion, and currently free of charge. Whether the card is a wedding wish, an anniversary thank you, or a birthday dedication — it conveys in words what the silver already says in its form.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Opulence Spirit Service

What shape are the glasses in the Opulence service — snifters or shot glasses?
The spirit glasses in the Opulence service are classic 25 ml shot glasses: compact, direct, made for a single sip. This is the difference to the Classique service, which contains 50 ml snifters. If you are serving spirits, fruit brandies or liqueurs in a round, the 25 ml glasses are the right choice.

Can I order parts of the service individually?
Yes. The decanter is available as a single item in the Decanters & Carafes collection (SW10218). Individual shot glasses and the tray can be ordered upon request. However, the complete service as a unit has its own value — as a whole, it is a different gift.

For what occasions is the spirit service suitable as a gift?
The Opulence service is a gift for significant occasions: weddings, silver anniversaries, milestone birthdays, company anniversaries, the departure of a long-standing partner. Also found in the categories Luxury Gifts for Men and Business Gifts.

How is the service delivered?
The complete service is delivered in gift packaging — all eight parts secured and presented. No separate wrapping is necessary. You can give it directly as a gift.

How do you care for a gilded silver service?
With a soft silver cloth without abrasive cleaners. The niello and gilded surfaces do not react to normal polishing — on the contrary: the niello contours become sharper over time. Do not use a dishwasher. For the gilding, apply gentle, dry polishing with a cloth. The service will remain in shape for generations.
