MOISEIKIN for sale on 1stDibs
Founded by Viktor Moisekin, a highly devoted and well-known jeweler in Russia, luxury jewelry company Moiseikin has created unparalleled pieces for heads of state and royalty around the world, as well as medals for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. Its work is charged with emotion, commands attention and is endlessly creative.
The company was started in 1993, and its team of artisans draws on centuries of Russian jewelry traditions from such firms as Fabergé and Bolin, while involving cutting-edge contemporary techniques. For example, its proprietary diamond-setting technology involves setting a diamond at just two points. Moiseikin is known for its exceptional quality and opulent detail, with forms from nature like animals and flowers inspiring its luxurious pieces. Gold branches on brooches are adorned with leaves of rubies and diamonds and white gold rings bloom with blossoms of sapphires.
Headquartered in Yekaterinburg, the jewelry house showcases fine gemstones from the nearby Ural Mountains. Among its selections of animal objets d’art and floral earrings, the Horn of Plenty stands as Moiseikin’s crowning achievement. Taking over a year to make, the piece contains an enormous nautilus shell with 500,000 sapphires, 20,000 diamonds and one kilogram of gold. A hummingbird hovering over an orchid completes the sculpture, which also includes a manually wound clock housed within its base.
On 1stDibs, find a collection of Moiseikin rings, earrings, necklaces and more.
Finding the Right figurines-sculptures for You
Figurines and sculptures date back tens of thousands of years to the earliest human cultures. Some of the oldest examples portrayed or symbolized people and animals, such as the famed “Lion Man of Hohlenstein-Stadel” from the Upper Paleolithic era. Rituals may have been performed using these early sculptures and figurines in the belief that they embodied what they represented. Beginning in the 19th century, animal sculpture started becoming not only fashionable but artistically validated — a trend that continues today.
Sculptures and figurines in our modern era are made from a variety of unique materials including gold and silver, and some are adorned with precious and semiprecious stones and more, from jade and opal to diamonds and sapphires. The meaning and use of these artworks have evolved over time, but they remain important cultural objects across the world.
While in the past figurines and sculptures regularly had cultural or historical significance, others were abstract or purely decorative. Many people now display them in cabinets or on shelves in their homes to express their personality and interests, just as they do other decorative objects and collectibles.
On 1stDibs, shop a collection of exquisite figurines and sculptures by leading artists and creators such as Salvador Dalí, MOISEIKIN and others.
