Presentation
A rare and elegant Imperial Russian walking cane, attributed to Pavel Ovchinnikov — one of the most important and refined Russian silversmiths of the 19th century, with nothing to envy to Fabergé, Khlebnikov, Rückert, or other master artisans of the Romanov court.

This exquisite piece features masterful cloisonné enamel work and precious silver mountings, representing the very peak of Russian decorative craftsmanship. Likely a unique surviving example, it stands as an extraordinary artifact of luxury and power from Imperial Russia.

The cane was undoubtedly intended for a person of high social rank, possibly a member of the aristocracy or court — as suggested by the enameled monogram in Cyrillic. Some speculative interpretations include Grand Duke Pavel Alexandrovich, although this remains only a hypothesis.

In late Imperial Russia, such an object was not merely utilitarian. A cane of this quality and visual impact was a status symbol — the equivalent, in modern terms, of wearing a Richard Mille or a custom Patek Philippe. A display of wealth, refinement, and access to the most exclusive circles of the empire.

Technical Description
Item: Imperial Russian Walking Cane

Attribution: Attributed to Pavel Ovchinnikov (circa 1880–1900)

Comparable to: Fabergé, Khlebnikov, Rückert (in quality and collectible value)

Material: Silver-mounted pommel with hand-crafted cloisonné enamel (turquoise, blue, white, red), mounted on a dark hardwood shaft

Hallmarks: “ПО” (Cyrillic for "PO" – consistent with Ovchinnikov), and Russian silver 84 zolotnik (.875/1000)

Decoration: Refined floral enamel patterns and twisted silver filigree

Additional Elements: Two silver ornaments with zoomorphic (possibly dolphin) designs

Length: approx. 83 cm

Pommel Size: approx. 4 cm (width) × 2 cm (depth) × 3.5 cm (height)

Enamel Connector: approx. 2 cm (horizontal) × 1 cm (vertical)

Condition: Excellent antique condition. 

Cane Tip: The silver cap at the base of the shaft shows minor natural movement consistent with age, but remains secure and stable for display purposes.

Historical Significance
Pavel Ovchinnikov (1830–1888) was an official supplier to the Imperial Court and recipient of numerous international awards. His atelier became a symbol of Russian prestige, blending Orthodox tradition with Western European sophistication. His works are displayed in major institutions including the Kremlin Armory and the Hermitage.

Owning a piece attributed to Ovchinnikov is akin to owning a slice of Russian history — and this cane, with its refinement and possible high-rank provenance, is among the most striking and rare items of its kind ever seen on the market.

Important Notes: 

“This piece is attributed to Pavel Ovchinnikov; no formal expert appraisal or certificate accompanies it.”

1) All dimensions and weights are approximate and provided in good faith.

2) The photos have been taken at high resolution to offer a realistic and detailed view of the object. Due to lighting, monitor settings, and focus on authenticity, please rely on the dimensions provided rather than perceived scale.

3) The item will be professionally packaged with great care, suitable for safe shipment.

4) Shipping is only available within the European Union.

5) Weight Estimate:
The total weight of the cane is estimated to be approximately 350–450 grams, based on material analysis and dimensional proportions. This estimate considers the silver-mounted enamelled pommel, additional silver fittings, and the hardwood shaft.
Please note: This is a non-exact approximation provided in good faith and may vary slightly due to the handcrafted nature of the item and the density of materials used.

6) Tip End (Ferrule): The silver terminal shows slight movement, likely due to the original construction technique and the age of the piece. It is nonetheless secured by a small lateral metal pin, and this does not compromise the overall integrity of the cane, which remains solid and well-preserved for an item of its period.

Note for collectors and artists: The enamelled pommel and sub-pommel could potentially be transformed into a unique silver and enamel pendant by carefully detaching and shortening the cane. Please note this is a suggestion only and would require expert evaluation to determine feasibility. This offers an exclusive opportunity to create a wearable work of art from this rare and exquisite piece.

Don’t miss this opportunity to acquire a truly exceptional example of Russian imperial craftsmanship — a rare object that combines history, elegance, and prestige in a single, unforgettable piece.
