The extraordinary works of art in the State Tretyakov Gallery inspired the creation of this Limited Edition.
A beautiful St. George killing the dragon set things moving immediately.
On a splendid white horse, the Saint dominates the scene with the strength of the love message guiding him in his heroic deed.
It wasn’t easy to transfer the figure of Moscow’s divine patron adequately onto a small surface without engraving and without exceptional skill.
With this exceptional skill, the scene of the injuring of the dragon decorates the barrel, enamel on silver, reverential to the time and to the mystery.
The cap, which is also silver, is a harmonious flow of floral designs, perfect minute engravings with enamel inserts.
The sword-shaped clip is symbolic and also recalls, however, a medieval sword, embellished with a ruby.
Finally, a cornelian adorns the head, yet another embellishment of a lovely pen which combines the beauty of a world long gone with potent symbolism.
Limited Edition of 730 pieces.
