{"product_id":"silberbecher-925-silber-niello-turteltaube-280ml","title":"Silver goblet 925 silver turtle dove niello 280 ml","description":"\u003ch2\u003eSilver Beaker Turtledove — a bird that returns every year\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThere are symbols older than any language. The turtledove is one of them. For millennia, it has stood for fidelity, for the peace that comes after the storm, and for spring, which returns as surely as a promise. On this silver beaker, it lives on — in niello black on frosted 925 sterling silver, as clear and serene as the bird itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCan silver be engraved? Yes — and this beaker is prepared for it. The polished silver above and below the niello band offers space for a personal dedication, a date, or initials. But even without engraving, the beaker tells a story: that of a turtledove sitting among blossoms and leaves, surrounded by a niello panorama that, in its depth of detail, is more drawing than decoration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNo gold, no gleam — pure silver and deep niello black. Two tones instead of three. This is not a renunciation, but a decision: stricter, cooler, more timeless than the gilded Nektar variant. For those who like it unadulterated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eNiello Silver — two tones, one statement\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhat you see on the beaker's belly is not paint. It is an inlay from the depths of the metal. Niello means: engraving motifs into the silver, then melting a dark alloy of silver, copper, lead, and sulfur into the depressions. The alloy cools to black-gray and chemically bonds with the base metal — inseparable, no lacquer, no paint. What is created lasts for centuries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSevChern works in Veliky Ustyug, a city in northern Russia known for its niello silversmiths since the 17th century. Generations of artisans there have refined alloys and passed down engraving techniques. Each beaker goes through more than 15 steps — from the flat silver plate to the finished piece that rests in your hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe turtledove motif shows the bird sitting on a branch, surrounded by blossoms and leaves. Beside it, an oval medallion with a floral motif — a point of calm in the pattern. The rope pattern border above and below completes the composition. The hallmark — the official assay mark — confirms the 925 fineness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBaptism, Wedding, Nature — a beaker for many stories\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe turtledove is a migratory bird that returns every spring — a natural symbol of new beginnings and fidelity. That's why this beaker is suitable for occasions that deserve more than just an object: for baptisms, where the dove has always symbolized the Holy Spirit. For weddings, where turtledoves embody the loving couple. For the birthday of a nature lover who appreciates animals and recognizes quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe turtledove was the Bird of the Year 2020 — an animal whose population is worth protecting. A silver beaker with this motif is also a quiet statement: preserve beauty, don't consume it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThose who prefer gilded accents will find the counterpart in the Nektar collection — same beaker shape, same dimensions, warm gold instead of pure silver. Both lines can be combined: one table, two styles, one signature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eEngraving \u0026 Personalization\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe polished silver between the niello bands offers space for engraving — a name, a date, a short dedication. On request, the variant with a blank engraving field can also be ordered: an oval, polished field into which initials, a coat of arms, or a monogram can be engraved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUpon request, we include a personal SilverVerse card in photo format (10×15 cm) — individually designed, suitable for the occasion. Currently free of charge.

The difference lies in the finish: Turtledove is pure 925 silver without gilding — cooler, more classic. Nektar has gilded accents on the rims and foot — warmer, more festive. You can find both under \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/trinkglaeser-925-silber\"\u003eDrinking Glasses made of 925 Silver\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the beaker also available with an engraving field?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes — the variant with a blank oval field is available separately. A coat of arms, a monogram, or a company emblem can be engraved there. The carafe from the same collection is also available with and without an engraving field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I care for niello silver properly?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nA soft cloth and lukewarm water are sufficient. No silver dips — these can damage the niello inlay. The niello is chemically bonded to the silver, not glued on, and is therefore robust. Over time, the contrasts deepen — the piece becomes more beautiful, not worse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the beaker match the Turtledove carafe?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes — all pieces of the Turtledove collection feature the same motif and are designed as a modular service.
