Silver gift kovsh with imperial double-headed eagle and monogram of Tsarina Catherine the Great Russia, 18th century L. 33 cm Gift to a Cossack sergeant officer in the Don army (Michail) for loyal service, presented in Moscow on 18 April 1771. Silver, cast, chased and partially gilded. The Imperial double-headed eagle in relief in the centre, crowned with an eagle at the front. The handle in the form of a crowned cartouche with the monogram EJ II of Tsarina Catherine II. Three cartouches on the outside with inscriptions, date and portrait of the Tsarina. Without hallmarks. Ca. 484g. Slightly dented, worn, eagle crown and handle base restored. Catherine II, known as "The Great" (1729-1796), born Sophie Auguste von Anhalt-Zerbst, was Empress of Russia from 9 July 1762. The kovsh was originally an oval drinking and ladling vessel made of metal and first appeared in Russia in the middle of the 14th century. They continued to develop over the centuries in various sizes and materials. In the 16th and early 17th centuries, kovshes were presented personally or in the presence of the tsar, from which the typical "gift" kovsh developed, initially to Cossacks and tax collectors, later also to merchants. The present form with the Russian double-headed eagle, the monogram of the tsar/zarina, the title of the tsar/zarina and the occasion and name of the recipient established itself as a typical form. The tradition of gift kovshe lasted until the early 19th century. Ref. Alexander von Solodkoff, Russische Goldschmiedekunst, 17th-19th century, pp. 64ff. and fig. 89 ff.
