Coffeepot
(18th and 19th Centuries )
Silver appliqués stamped with blossoms and birds have been applied to the white enamel surface of the coffee pot. A distinctive feature of this pot is the addition of a translucent enamel known as steklovidnaia, colored in turquoise and purple, to the surfaces of the appliqués.
