About the Item

Russian manufacture (19th-20th century) - Young man with samovar. 6 x 6 x h 15 cm the sculpture, 17 x 12 x h 20 cm the box. Full figure in various marbles and hardstones, in a display box. The sculpture depicts a young man in traditional dress, portrayed holding a gilt metal samovar with both hands. The figure is entirely made of marbles and hardstones of different colours, skilfully assembled to render the various elements of the clothing and complexion: the face and hands in pale stone, the tunic and trousers in veined green marble, the footwear in red stone. The piece draws on the taste of the celebrated hardstone figures produced by the House of Fabergé between the late 19th and early 20th century, a genre that enjoyed great popularity in Russian lapidary production, depicting popular types and traditional trades, often enriched with gilt metal elements.
