An extraordinary and remarkable pair of antique Russian silver gilt and enamel vodka tots, presented in a box, enhances our collection of drink-related silverware.

These remarkable antique Russian silver gilt vodka tots feature a cylindrical shape, resting on a simple knopped pedestal with a circular spreading foot. Each vessel's surface is adorned with exquisite turquoise hot enamel, showcasing fine craftsmanship.

The gilt silver knopped pedestals are further decorated with hot enamel along the cylindrical stems. Both the exterior and interior surfaces of these impressive cups retain their original gilding. These distinguished drinking vessels are housed in a satin wood presentation box, lined with velvet and satin, and secured with a hinged clasp.

Antique Russian silver and enamel tots attract collectors and enthusiasts due to their exceptional craftsmanship, historical importance, and visual allure. With intricate cloisonné or champlevé enamel designs and traditional Russian motifs, these pieces embody the rich artistic legacy of Imperial Russia.

Their high-purity silver, often marked with genuine assay stamps, contributes to their intrinsic value, while their durability ensures lasting quality. The limited production of these items, particularly during times of political turmoil, renders them rare and highly sought after, with creations by esteemed silversmiths like Fabergé fetching premium prices. Beyond their decorative charm, these tots provide a tangible link to Russian culture and history, making them not only beautiful artifacts but also significant investments.

Their vibrant enamel, elaborate designs, and connection to the opulence of the Romanov era further enhance their appeal, resonating with both aesthetic appreciation and a sense of nostalgia for a past era.
