Stemmed glass 925 silver niello grapes gilt — 210 ml

Grapes on a wine goblet — the motif tells you what belongs inside. Heavy grapes hang from vines, leaves and tendrils frame them, all in niello hand-engraving on 925 sterling silver with gold accents that make the grapes glow. This goblet holds 210 ml, weighs 208 grams, and stands on a slender stem with a niello-decorated base. The inside is completely gilded — warm gold that shows the wine in a light no crystal glass can achieve. A wine goblet that not only keeps its promise but also shows it.

The Grape Motif — When the Goblet Reflects its Contents

There are wine goblets with abstract patterns, with coats of arms, with flowers. And then there's this one — a goblet on which what it's meant to hold grows. The grapes on the cup are not a stylized graphic: they hang realistically from vines, the leaves have veins, the tendrils twist. Every line is hand-engraved into the silver, the niello is hand-fused in the flame. The golden fields behind the grapes give the motif warmth and depth — as if the sun were shining through a vine leaf.

The grape motif has a long tradition in Russian silversmithing. The grape symbolizes abundance, pleasure, and fertility — symbols that are perfectly suited for a wine goblet. At SevChern, this motif is part of the classic ornamental palette that has been cultivated for generations.

210 ml — A Wine Goblet for a Full Sip

With 210 ml, this goblet sits between the Lotus Goblet (175 ml) and the large Floral Goblet (230 ml). 210 ml is ideal for a generous red wine or an aromatic white wine — enough volume for swirling, enough space for the aromas. The goblet is 170 mm high with a diameter of 66 mm — slender enough for an elegant silhouette, wide enough for comfortable drinking.

The interior gilding is particularly important for a wine goblet: gold protects the silver from the acidity in the wine and does not impart any taste of its own. The wine tastes like wine — just cooler, because silver retains temperature better than glass.

A Gift for Wine Lovers — The Motif Says It All

Wine Lovers and Sommeliers: For those who don't just drink wine but taste it, who can distinguish between barrique and stainless steel tank, they deserve a goblet that is taken as seriously as the wine in it.

Winemakers and Viticulture-Related: For people who work in the vineyard or own a vineyard — a goblet with a grape motif in silver is the piece that stands in the vinotheque and is used for tasting.

Wine Tasting as a Gift Occasion: Given with a good bottle — the wine is drunk, the goblet remains. This is the kind of gift that explains itself.

Wedding and Anniversary: The grape symbolizes abundance and fertility — a fitting symbol for the beginning of a marriage or the celebration of a life stage.

Frequently Asked Questions about the Grape Goblet

Does the goblet match the other stemware in the collection?
Yes — all goblets in the line share the same basic shape (baluster stem, gilded interior, niello base) and can be used as an ensemble. The motifs vary: Lotus Blossom (175 ml), Grapes (210 ml), full-surface Floral (230 ml).

Can one actually drink wine from the goblet?
Yes — that's what it's made for. 925 silver is food-safe, the interior gilding protects against wine acid. Clean with warm water, not in the dishwasher.

Is engraving possible?
Upon request — initials, date, or a saying can be engraved on the base or the lower rim of the cup. The grape surface itself is completely covered with niello.

Can I order a pair?
Yes — upon request as a pair or as a set with the other goblets. Each piece is individually crafted at SevChern.
