The unrecorded maker's mark 'AO' can often be seen alongside the marks of Pavel Ovchinnikov, which usually overstrike the former. The high quality and importance of the present lot suggests that it was probably made for the firm of Ovchinnikov, one of the leading manufacturers of enamelled works in Russia.
