Why You’ll Love It
This is a pretty sterling silver teacup, saucer, and teaspoon set by Russian silversmith Dimitri Shevchenko. Finely crafted in solid sterling silver, the teacup features softly fluted walls and a delicately curled handle, paired with a matching saucer and an ornate teaspoon with an elegant, sculpted handle. Designed in the tradition of Victorian and Edwardian silver services, this is a graceful single-place setting ideal for intimate tea scenes, formal dining rooms, or silver cabinet displays.

A Note About Value
Every miniature we offer has been carefully evaluated for its craftsmanship, rarity, condition, provenance, and collectibility. Many of the artisan pieces we sell are one-of-a-kind works that may never appear on the market again. While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.
Our pricing reflects the miniature's place within today's collector market and the years we've spent studying the artists, histories, and values that make these tiny works of art so special.
A Commitment to Research
Every miniature has a story, and uncovering it is one of our greatest passions. We carefully research each piece, but unsigned or illegible works can remain mysteries. If you can identify an artist or provide additional information, we'd be delighted to hear from you and will gladly update the listing to preserve their legacy.
