Marked Fabergé with the Imperial Warrant, this very large cloisonné enamel item was nonetheless executed in the workshop of Feodor Rückert who was producing the best cloisonné enamel articles in Moscow. His workmanship was so renowned that other firms such as Fabergé or even Kurliukov and Ovchinnikov were buying and retailing Rückert's works.
In fact, either the Rückert mark is overstruck by the Fabergé mark or, in this case, his mark is not present, which is very common.
