There is a very rare porcelain Lenin inkpot by famous Russian artist Natalya Y.Dan’ko.
These pieces was made in limited edition and presented only to the members of
presidium of the Congress of Communist Party.
The inkpot consists of two books, a scroll and a bust of Lenin standing on them,
with a removable inkwell embedded in the books. On the scroll runs the slogan,
the cover of the inkpot bears a facsimile of Lenin’s two signatures in Cyrillic,
in black underglaze. Height 6” (15.2 cm.). The same Lenin inkpot was published in the
book “Revolutionary Ceramics (Soviet Porcelain 1917-1927)” by Nina Lobanov- Rostovsky, Rizzoli, NY, 1990.
You can see the page with Lenin inkpot from this
book on the my photos.

AS AN OLD RUSSIAN TRADITION IT IS CUSTOMARY TO GIVE AN OPEN SALT FOR GOOD LUCK. This is a beautiful exemplar for present: Russian old silver enamel open salt in the old Russian style, decorated with enamel on filigree ornament in pastel colours. There are marks: the hallmark 84’, initials “G.K.”(Gustav Klingert) and date 1888. I have discovered in the book "The History of Faberge Firm" by Russian Art-Industrial Society, Petrograd that Klingert started making objects with cloisonne enamel for Faberge in Moscow in 1877. Faberge’s Moscow signature often replaced by Klinkert’s sign. This book has the list of Faberge cooperators where Klingert is included . You also can read about Gustav Klingert in the book “Faberge.Great Jewellers of Russia” by T.Muntyan, Moscow, Red Square, 2000, p.206. Size is 1"1/2'x 2”1/4'x 2"1/4'(4 x 5.7 x 5.7 cm). I guarantee that this item is original.
