The rim of the bowl is edged with white enamels simulating the pearls, which are found on the borders of 17th century icon oklads. A Russian inscription beneath the rim  reads: From the Grateful and Appreciative GG and the Contractors of the Construction Department , May 20, 1901, Respectfully to Claudius Osipovich and Maria Nikolaevna Giraud.",
