Description
A Russian silver samorodok cigarette case decorated with ruby stones. A silver push-thumb lock. Hallmarked with the mark of the manufacturer and the Russian silver proof mark. Samorodok is a technique that produces a beautifully textured nugget-like effect on the surface that resembles tree bark. It is achieved by heating the silver to a temperature just below melting point, then cooling it abruptly in water. It is a very difficult technique to master, so samorodok is quite rare. Weight: 192.2 grams.
Dimensions: Length 4 1/4"in. Width 3 1/8" in
Condition
Overall condition good. Shows light signs of wear and age on box.
