Material and Workmanship

The Astra Classic collection stands for the combination of floral ornamentation and warm golden gleam: The niello pattern — black silver-sulfur inlays in fine engraving lines — clearly stands out from the gilded surface, giving the piece its characteristic contrast. The aster, as a recurring motif of the collection, symbolically represents grace and permanence. Each piece bears a hallmark as proof of 925 sterling silver, crafted in the Russian silversmithing tradition.

Usage and Occasions

The generous bowl with a width of 72 mm is suitable for serving soups, sauces, or punch at festive occasions — the gilded interior keeps the taste of delicate foods neutral, while the niello ornament on the handle provides a stylish contrast. A piece for weddings, anniversaries, and family celebrations, which can be complemented with the salad spoon, sauce ladle, or serving spoon from the same collection to form a complete serving cutlery set.

Engraving and SilberVerse Card

Engraving is not directly provided on the surface of this piece. Instead, upon request, we include a personalized SilberVerse card in photo format (15 × 10 cm landscape) — individually designed, suitable for the occasion, and currently free of charge. This gives this serving piece a very personal touch, without any intervention on the surface.

Care

Clean the soup ladle exclusively by hand with warm water and mild detergent, then dry thoroughly. Occasional polishing with a silver polishing cloth is suitable for maintaining its shine. Dishwashers are not suitable for gilded silver with niello decor, as heat and aggressive cleaners can damage both the gilding and the niello filling.
