Luxury Sterling Silver Centerpiece Bowl – Swan Sky Lapis Lazuli Vermeil

The Grand Centerpiece Serving Bowl from the "Swan Sky" ensemble is conceived as a sculptural statement piece, embodying the ceremonial grandeur and refined artistry of Imperial decorative arts. Presented here as a standalone work, this monumental bowl is entirely handcrafted in mirror polished 925 sterling silver, with elements formed in 960 silver beneath the hot enamel rich 24K gold vermeil accents, artistically carved natural lapis lazuli, With a full vermeil interior and luminous hot enamel applied over hand engraved guilloché surfaces.
With a bowl height of 17 cm (6.7 inches) and a diameter of 25 cm (9.8 inches), this centerpiece offers both functional presence and architectural balance.

This serving bowl reflects the aesthetic language of the complete Swan Sky garniture: imperial symmetry, sculptural swan motifs, and a dialogue between architectural structure and intricate ornamentation. The polished silver surfaces create mirror like reflections, enhancing the depth and brilliance of the materials. Rich 24 karat vermeil details introduce warmth and contrast, while the guilloché enamel work radiates subtle luminosity beneath its translucent surface.

Natural lapis lazuli plays a central decorative role. Its deep celestial blue, formed by lazurite, is naturally accented with golden pyrite inclusions reminiscent of distant stars across a midnight sky. Historically associated with nobility, prosperity, and wisdom, lapis lazuli reinforces the regal symbolism of the piece and anchors the bowl within a tradition of aristocratic ceremonial objects.
Each component of the bowl is individually crafted and assembled through a concealed cold connection technique, a refined method reminiscent of the celebrated innovations of Carl Fabergé and often described as “the union of the incompatible.” This method allows precious materials to coexist harmoniously without compromising structural integrity or artistic clarity.

Each bowl is handcrafted exclusively for the client at the highest level of atelier craftsmanship. Estimated lead time is approximately 4 months from order confirmation.
As part of the commission, the client receives a complimentary signed original design sketch, prepared by the atelier and presented as a document of artistic process and provenance.

The full garniture has an approximate total weight of 40 kg (88.2 lbs), reflecting the substantial use of solid silver and carved stone elements.
