Height (with handle): 12 cm Width: 10 cm Weight: 193 g An elegant collectible that continues the refinement of Russian silversmithing, blending artistry with function. Nice condition without real demage or repair. Please see photos as part of the description. Item will be securely packaged and sent off via tracked and insured post.
