According to Fabergé's London ledgers, thirty-five ashtrays in yellow brass, described as 'War Souvenirs', were presented to special customers in July 1915.
From 1914 to 1917 Fabergé produced bowls, cigarette cases, and kitchen utensils embossed with Fabergé’s name and the inscription ‘War 1914’, often made in less valuable, yet more practical, materials such as brass, copper and steel. In Russia, items like this were often commissioned by the government as small gifts, presented to soldiers and officers by Emperor Nicholas II.
