[QUOTE="Lecollectionneur, post: 487907, member: 8569"]Russian at the tzar era doesn't write in cyrillic for monograms, don't forget that french was common language for russian nobility. But looking at how the case is made, especially the lid, it's not russian, or made in the communist era which i don't know so well but under russian imperial time the lips of the cases were always made in the same manner to align the two parts. This is made like german silversmiths works and in the 30's design machined in line guilloché.[/QUOTE]
