A pair of Russian Rococo revival presentation emerald cufflinks, adorned with the Imperial Warrant centring a fancy-cut emerald and a circular-cut tsavorite garnet resp., on golden translucent enamel on guilloched ground, encircled by rocailles, mounted in 14k gold. I. E. Morozov, Cyrillic master's mark NP (1908–1917), 56 standard, mounted with chain and hanger. Diam. 1.7 cm. L. 2.6 cm.

Workmaster Ivan Ekimovich Morozov (1825–1885), later the Business House I. E. Morozov, was one of the most serious competitors for Fabergé, which is also evident from the design and quality of these cufflinks.

Provenance: Seller's grandfather, Rudolph Georg Nielsen (1874–1935), chief of police in Hellerup. Tsaritsa Maria Feodorovna of Russia's Danish residence Hvidøre belonged to this jurisdiction. Through her regular visits to Denmark, Rudolph Gerog Nielsen often had different tasks for the Tsaritsa, and she gave him the cufflinks with thanks for good cooperation and faithful service.
