Тут в параллельной теме разгорелось обсуждение по поводу ювелирных изделий с казанскими клеймами. Не буду утверждать насколько редки такие изделия, просто постараюсь привести наиболее интересные экземпляры с клеймами казанских пробиеров. Желающие могут открыть темы, касающиеся московских, питерских, киевских и проч. пробирных палат. Так, по-моему, мы еще не классифицировали заинтересовавшие нас изделия. Потом мы можем сравнить, есть ли в них особенности стиля, вкуса, манеры исполнения.

Итак, вот это кольцо вызвало наибольший интерес. Мы его уже приводили ранее, но никогда не задумывались над тем, что оно было опробировано в Казани.
