Julius Alexander Rappoport, originally Isak Abramovich, was a Lithuanian silversmith and Fabergé workmaster.
Julius Rappoport opened his first own workshop in St. Petersburg at Ekateriniski Canal in 1883, then he moved to Moscow to become a Fabergé workmaster.
Recently a few of these special commissions that were designed by Fabergé, and made by Rappoport, have been auctioned by Bonhams and Christies in London(England) and in Munich.
Within the boldly chased shell, the surrounds are rococo scrolls which simulate sea spray.
The rounded top cover was set with a further rouble coin of Nicholas II of Russia.
