Another preeminent jeweler and silversmith, Pavel Akimovich Ovchinnikov founded his Moscow firm in 1853. He was the first Russian silver maker to embrace the pan-Slavic revival style, and in 1868 nearly two de-cades before Fabergé, the firm received the title of court supplier, allowing it to incorporate the imperial double eagle in its trademark.

"here Ovchinnikov...the most important craftsmen (of Kovsh)" Von Solodkoff, p87. "the most notable firms were...Gratchov...Ovchinnikov..." Snowman, p129.
