Even without a hallmark, this very tight and twisted, dense gold filigree work, with 'fan'-shaped plant motifs, points to a group of well-known workshops:
* anonymous Moscow workshops of the late 19th century
* Caucasian workshops (Baku, Tbilisi) working for Russian and European clients
* Old Believer workshops, whose filigree tradition is ancient.
