Material and workmanship

The Victory motif is engraved using the niello technique – a black inlay is fused into the engraved lines, sanded flat, and polished – like ink in silver. The partial gilding adds additional accents and highlights individual elements of the motif: a star, a curved wreath of leaves and wheat, and a striped ribbon that winds around it. Together, niello and gold are a classic stylistic feature of Russian silversmithing – the contrast of dark niello, warm gold, and bright silver gives this compact flask its special radiance. The cap and edge finish are also gold-plated. The flask is made of solid 925 sterling silver.

Use and occasions

"Victory" as a motif stands for strength, determination, and success – for moments when something has been accomplished, achieved, or won. This flask is suitable as a gift for people who identify with these values: for a milestone birthday, a promotion, the completion of a major project, for Christmas, or as a wedding gift for the groom. With 90 ml, it is compact enough for an inner pocket and a discreet companion for a conscious sip on special occasions.

Engraving and SilberVerse card

With a personal engraving, this flask becomes unique – upon review, we can have a name, date, or short dedication engraved. Upon request, we will also include a personal SilberVerse card in photo format (15 x 10 cm landscape) – individually designed, appropriate for the occasion, and free of charge.

Care

After use, clean with lukewarm water and a soft cloth; do not put in the dishwasher. For slight tarnishing, a silver polishing cloth helps – the gilding and niello remain undamaged. Never treat gold-plated silver with aggressive cleaning agents or a silver dip bath, as this will damage the gilding. A soft, slightly damp cloth is sufficient for daily shine.

Frequently asked questions

Does the silver affect the taste of whiskey or cognac? No, 925 sterling silver is taste-neutral. Classic spirits such as whiskey, cognac, or fruit brandy can be stored without any change in taste.

What does the partial gilding change? The gilding is not only decorative – it additionally protects the gold-plated surfaces from tarnishing. Visually, it creates the typical contrast of dark niello, warm gold, and bright silver, a classic feature of the Russian silver tradition.

How do I maintain the gilding long-term? Clean with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Do not use a silver dip bath or aggressive cleaning agents. In case of tarnishing on non-gold-plated areas, use a standard silver polishing cloth only on those spots.
