описание:
Of tapering cylindrical form with domed cover and elaborate scrolling handle, the surface richly engraved and nielloed with floral ornament, geometric friezes, and architectural motifs, including a finely detailed view of the Bronze Horseman monument in St. Petersburg. The cover is engraved with matching foliate scrolls and surmounted by an openwork floral ring finial. The parcel-gilt surface retains areas of original gilding, enhancing the niello contrast.
An inscription encircles the upper rim, reading: "Августа 18 дня 1839 года. Гвардии полковника Я. В. Орлова Прискакаль Жеребец Счеголъ, завода Графа Шереметева, в г. Таганрогъ, 8 верстъ в 9 минутъ. Б. С."
("On August 18, 1839. The Guards Colonel Ya. V. Orlov rode the horse 'Schegol, ' from the Count Sheremetev Stud Farm, at Taganrog, 8 versts in 9 minutes. B.S.")
The inscription records the presentation of the cup as a first prize in a cavalry horse race won by Colonel Yakov Vasilyevich Orlov, a distinguished officer of the Imperial Guard, commemorating his victory on the stallion Segol bred at the Sheremetev stables.
Hallmarks: on the verso struck with Moscow 84 silver standard (St. George), assayer’s initials, and maker’s mark A.K. (Postnikova-Loseva no. 208, fig. 2199, unidentified master working 1835–1849).
Weight: 11.2 o., 490 g.
