A Russian Neo-Renaissance and silver-gilt charka with a firm rock crystal bowl, top rim with filigree and foliage, body with four-parted lacework mounted on a round stylized arcanthus raised base, richly set with facet-cut and square-cut rubies, emeralds and rose sapphires, engraved leaf handle. Apparently no maker's marks. 19th century. Inspired by the Workshops of the Moscow Kremlin in the 17th century. H. 5.4 cm. L. 9.8 cm. Provenance: The widow after Valdemar Ebbesen (b. Halden 1896, d. Oslo 1980), Colonel and Military Attaché at the Norwegian embassy in Moscow 1925–1927. Valdemar Ebbesen was the son of General Christian Ebbesen at Frederiksten Fortress in Halden, and inspired by his father he received a military education. At the same time, Valdemar Ebbesen had a great interest in art and antiques, and he also bought this charka during his stay in Moscow. Valdemar Ebbesen was an exciting and enterprising person. In Norway, he subsequently became both bank director and shipowner. Later, he also opened art galleries in both Copenhagen and Geneva.
