Kyiv Jewelry Factory - Trinkglas - .925 Silber

Ukrainian Sterling Silver Goblet with Spiral Fluting – 925 Silver, Kyiv Jewelry Factory

A substantial and beautifully crafted sterling silver goblet produced by the Kyiv Jewelry Factory (Київський ювелірний завод), one of Ukraine's foremost silverware manufacturers. The piece combines classical form with elegant decorative detailing — the generously proportioned bowl is adorned with bold diagonal spiral fluting across its lower half, a technique that catches the light beautifully and gives the piece a dynamic, sculptural quality. The upper bowl is left smooth and polished, creating a pleasing contrast of textures.

The stem features a delicate beaded collar at the knop, adding a refined finishing touch, while the stepped circular foot provides a stable and well-proportioned base. A very similar piece to the earlier Kyiv Jewelry Factory goblet in this collection, but notably larger and heavier, making it a more imposing and substantial drinking vessel.

Hallmarks (visible on underside of base):

925 silver standard — sterling silver
Ukrainian state assay mark (lozenge-shaped), consistent with post-Soviet Ukrainian hallmarking
Maker's mark — Kyiv Jewelry Factory code
