Notes:М.онь [Mon'] is unidentified but recorded (Postnikova-Loseva, 2674) as working in Moscow from 1908. Enameled works by this maker, which appear infrequently on the market, show a strong influence of the late style of Feodor Rückert, incorporating a similar color palette and Neo-Russian design elements.
