Featured May I have some help with this Russian pin?

u understand now......very well !!

 

Any, you are absolutely right in everything, it cannot add anything to the value of the piece. Sorry, I missed your mention of Kubachi, it was a long day today!

The thing is that I found quite a lot of listings with this maker's mark and got curious, it must have been some quite prominent maker. So it will be more of a personal quest When I have time, though, now I will go to bed.

 

Oh, no, I was answering Komo as I misinterpreted his words, sorry for this! Today I was not very attentive...
It is normal that people don't know everything about everywhere, I don't know many things about American First Nation, for instance, or about Africa. I just happen to live in this part of the world and close to Russia, furthermore, my country was part of its sphere of influence (hope it stays in the past and not coming back!). So it is normal that I am much more aware of Russian imperial doings.
Glad to help with my knowledge, if I can.

 

That's OK Iva, I miss things all the time. I have ADD, so I have the attention span of a squirrel.

I know, our Iva needs to get to the bottom of things.
We'd make a good team, you studying the detail, and I studying the cultural setting a thing was made in.

 

From your lips to God's ears, Iva.
But I think the tyrant is concentrating on former Russian or Soviet nations, which will keep him occupied for the rest of his term. I hope that term will end soon, and we won't see another tyrant in his place.

 

I just thought it was neat. Not like anything I’ve ever come across. Love the bits and pieces of possible history

 

I'm sure that niello craftsmanship aside, it is an expression of a very personal story and was close to the heart of a former owner.
