Ivan Galnbek (1855-1934), an architect and art historian who provided occasional designs for the firm of Fabergé, designed many of the historically inspired forms of the cups, bowls, and kovshi in the Kornilowdesign collections. Although best known for the delightful bear- and horse-shaped handles on Kornilov porcelains, Galnbek designed numerous forms for the manufactory, many of which demonstrate his vast knowledge of Russian art and often drew on the forms of traditional Russian metalwork.On Kornilov Brothers porcelain and Ivan Galnbek, see T.
