Muut tiedot
Sofia Schwan was one of many women active in the Russian jewellery industry. She inherited the workshop from her husband, Robert Schwan, who was a workmaster for Bolin until his passing in 1895. The ownership gave her the right to use her own mark SS. Under Sofia Schwan's leadership Bolin produced some of the finest jewellery in the collection of the Imperial family.
