    Cylindrical glass, with geometrical faceting. The glass holder is cylindrical, on a profiled circular belled-out base, with a figured handle, made in the neo-Russian style. The glass holder body, with open-work top edge, is decorated with a picture of a galloping hero (the hero's head and the horse's head are in close-up), holding a cudgel in his hand and aiming a blow at his enemies (?), whose faces are not detailed. In the other hand, the hero is holding a shield, with a painted image of a mythological creature - a gryphon holding a flower in his paws. The figured handle is made in the form of a shield with a painted image of forest landscape on one side and a tower on the other.
