The basic color scheme of the glasses is made with enamels of green shades. The pattern is decorated with floral ornaments.

The goblets are made in one of the most refined and complex techniques of artistic enameling of stained-glass enamel, which appeared in Russia at the end of the XIX century.

The base of the product is created from 925 silver filigree. The soldered openwork ornament is a solid frame of the product. Stained-glass enamel is colorfully embedded in the created silver pattern. Each enamel color has its own melting point - this is how the product undergoes multiple firing in muffle furnaces at temperatures of 720-760 degrees.

Enamel is a powder with an admixture of one or another metal oxide, which gives the enamel a certain color. After firing, such an alloy turns into a solid shiny mass with stable, bright colors.

Despite the apparent fragility, enamel works that have undergone high-temperature firing in a muffle furnace have retained a rich palette and brightness of colors for centuries. In color, shone, iridescence, stained-glass enamel has similarities with precious stones and, moreover, acts as a jewel on a par with them. And the undoubted advantage of art works with stained-glass enamels is their functionality.

Stained-glass enamel is one of the most difficult and time–consuming enameling techniques. It is rightfully considered the top of enamel art.
