19th century
Description

A good and rarely found hallmarked Russian silver spice tower, the bowl surmounted by the Star of David centred by a red semi precious stone cabouchon set in a silver collar and with original and well fitting clasp in excellent working condition.

We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A Judaica spice box, or besamim container, is used during the Havdalah ceremony at the conclusion of the Jewish Sabbath. Fragrant spices are stored inside and smelled during the ritual blessings to mark the transition from the holy day to the working week.

Traditional spice containers are primarily crafted from solid silver or pewter, often featuring detailed chasing, filigree wirework, and occasionally set with semiprecious cabochon stones or glass accents.

Authentic 19th-century Russian silver pieces bear official state hallmarks, such as the 84 zolotnik purity stamp, alongside city marks, date stamps, and assayer or maker initials struck directly into the metal surface.

An antique silver ceremonial object functions as a focal display item when positioned on a sideboard, placed inside a glass cabinet, or arranged alongside art books on a styled bookshelf.

Silver ritual objects should be dusted regularly with a soft lint-free cloth and cleaned using specialized silver polish to manage tarnish, avoiding abrasive tools or submerging non-metal components in water.
