Russian Art Nouveau kovsh in elaborate cloisonné enamel by Fyodor Rückert. Moscow, 1908-1917 It is a cylindrical bowl with a contoured edge and a transverse heart-shaped handle. The body and top side of the handle are decorated with painted, fairy-tale flowers and geometric motifs of blue triangles on the deep, signature brown background of Feodor Rückert. The stem and sternpost are marked with a geometric motif of spirals, rhombuses and triangles, stylizing jets of water, flowers or solar signs. High pictorial generalization is introduced by applied drops of icicles, crosses and lattices made of pure silver. They give the work endless depth and nostalgia of the Russian north. On the base of the ladle there are Moscow hallmarks of 88 standard silver of 1908-1917 and the initials of the leading Fabergé enameller Fyodor Rückert, FR in a square shield. Height 4.5 cm.
