All statements in this report are an opinion. Act at your own risk. Report by Soviet Jewelry News www.SovietJewelry.com At a time of great division in the Eastern European community a lesson in multiculturalism, unity and brotherhood can be learned from an unusual person, a Soviet Lithuanian artist Czeslaw Znamierowski (23 May 1890 – 9 August 1977). He was born in Imperial Russia on Latvian territory into a Polish family; at the age of 32 he became a citizen of the Soviet Union and soon after moved permanently to Lithuania, where he lived until his last day. Originally published on: http://www.shoutoutuk.org/2014/08/27/czeslaw-znamierowski-multicultural-artist-ussr As a student he was taught by some of the greatest artists of Lithuania and Russia, like Ferdynand Ruszczyc, Arkady Rylov and Nicholas Roerich. As an artist he worked with Georgians, Ukrainians, Polish, Latvians and others on a regular basis, while his paintings weren’t just sold within the Soviet Union but all over the world to countries like Switzerland, United States, Canada, Germany, Sweden and other Western nations. “For him [Czeslaw Znamierowski] there were no boundaries between nationalities. He readily made friends with the natives of any country…. He was no stranger to Latvians, Lithuanians, Jews, Tatars, Karaites, Russians. He was ready to help everyone if possible.” - Wikipedia Although Znamierowski was a believer and advocate for socialism, as many were at that time, he was also a very kind, accepting and happy person who never forced his ideas onto others. That can be seen in his artworks and the manner in which he created them. An overwhelming majority of his paintings is dedicated, not to communism, but to nature while his style and colours are soft, gentle and flowing. When he did paint images of Socialist realism they were always associated with nature, progress and collaboration. Never with war, aggression or conflict, something that Znamierowski knew well, living through, and almost being killed during the October revolution of 1917, and then surviving the horror, as well as the aftermath of WWII. As difficult as his life was, people who knew Czeslaw always said he was an optimistic, happy-going individual all his life, even in his old age. Outside of art he loved gardening and pigeons. In fact his garden was one of the major attractions of Vilnius city and drew numerous tourists each year. It was that beautiful and unique. Czeslaw Znamierowski greatly contributed to Lithuania and all Baltic states at large. He started the Vilnius Artist’s Society; he donated many of his artworks to public institutions locally and abroad; held many solo exhibitions in Lithuania, Poland, Latvia and Russia, but above all he gave those nations and the world some of his largest panoramic artworks ever created in the Soviet Union. To understand the scale of his artworks one only needs to see Znamierowski’s Panorama of Vilnius City which measures 8 meters (26.3 ft) long and 2.5 meters (8.2 ft) high, or his most known artwork The Green Lakewhich is 2.5 meters (8.2 ft) long and 1.45 meters (4.8 ft) high. That is the type of artist Znamierowski was; he meticulously, perhaps even nonchalantly and with great pleasure, painted his massive masterpieces that took center stage at large public buildings and museums, locally in Lithuania and all across the USSR. That is why in 1965 he was awarded a prestigious title of an “Honourable Artist of L.S.S.R.”
Over his lifetime Znamierowski created about 3000 works of art, many of which were paintings that are in state museums across the globe. A lot of his art is in private collections as well as art funds, and, as it happens with many artists from the past, some of Znamierowski’s artworks are simply lost. His largest painting Panorama of Vilnius City has disappeared without a trace after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Hopefully it will be found one day. Fortunately his second largest artwork The Green Lake has been located, restored and preserved by the Tamoikin Art Fund, which is now graciously displaying it for the world to see. This fund has started a non-profit art project to locate, research and present to the world Czeslaw Znamierowski’s artworks, historic records and other significant information about him. A great deal has already been uncovered but even more is still ahead. To contribute or learn about this project visit: www.CzeslawZnamierowski.com By Gabriel Ornstein (M.F.A.)

Report by Soviet Jewelry News www.SovietJewelry.com The Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic, commonly referred to as Soviet Russia, the Russian Federation, or simply Russia, was a sovereign state and the largest, most populous, and most economically developed republic of the Soviet Union. - Wikipedia In our last report we said that now was the best time to buy Soviet gold. That said, we bought this rare 1979 RSFSR gold coin, which is one of many Soviet gold and silver rarities that we have recently acquired. Although numismatics is a separate market, the values of precious metal coins from the USSR are positively impacted by our efforts to grow and promote the entire Soviet jewelry market internationally. We expect that these rare coins will be appreciated in value splendidly with time, and especially with the ever-growing popularity of all Soviet art, antiques and collectibles. Furthermore, we always recommend diversifying one’s investment portfolio or collection, which is something we are doing ourselves right now. Expect to see many more Soviet gold and silver coins in our collection.
Finally, once more, we wish to stress the fact that gold and silver are excellent investments by themselves. That's why we encourage everyone to learn more about these valuable metals. Invest in gold and silver regardless whether it's Soviet or not. If the price is right buy precious metals in bullion form, as modern coins, antiques or vintage collectibles - but make sure you buy them. During these uncertain economic times where currencies are manipulated and can depreciate very quickly, owning gold and silver can be the only insurance one has against poverty. This trend was proven during 2008-2011 Global Financial Crisis; it was just recently proven in Greece and Spain, and if that isn't enough, yet again, it has being proven in Ukraine right now. People are selling their gold and silver so survive. Take a note and invest.... Disclaimer: All statements in this report are an opinion. Act at your own risk. Report by Soviet Jewelry News www.SovietJewelry.com Due to the Civil War in Ukraine much of the Soviet gold and silver jewelry has already been destroyed and there's more to come. Before this crisis, Ukraine was one of the largest holders of Soviet jewelry, being second only to Russia, however now, because of the unfortunate events that are unraveling in the region, this is no loner certain. If it hasn't happened already, this position might soon be yielded to Belarus.
How is Soviet jewellery being destroyed? The first and the most obvious way is through direct destruction of private property, caused by open civil war in the Eastern Ukraine. Simply put, as buildings collapse under artillery fire, property is lost. Then there is looting and outright theft of valuables which is now widespread through out the country. Finally, many people are fleeing Ukraine to Russia as refugees, and gold as well as silver jewellery is something that few leave behind, especially in such emergencies. Here it's important to mention that Eastern Ukraine, because of its historic ties and friendliness with Russia, until the start of this civil war, had one of the largest concentrations of Soviet jewelry in the entire country. Now with this conflict reaching ever larger scale, this is likely no longer the case. As disturbing as all of this sounds, this is not how most of Soviet gold and silver jewelry is being destroyed. The number one "killer" of these valuables is the collapsing economy of Ukraine. As people become poorer they need more and more "hard cash" to survive. Because Ukraine is overwhelmingly a cash based (not digital currency or credit) country, this cash is ever harder to come by. With the civil war at full swing, with the massive unemployment nationwide, with gas shortages and tough austerity measures implemented by the government, a lot of people simply do not have the money to live. What do they do in this situation - they sell their gold and silver! But how - eBay, internet, auction houses? Not at all, all those options take time and require not only English language but stability in the region, all of which are lacking in Ukraine. That is why, to date, after more than 6 months into this crisis we still see very little Soviet gold and silver from Ukraine for sale on eBay. So how do they sell their valuables? We're sure most of you guessed by now that they sell them to local "Cash for Gold' buyers, pawnshops and refineries. In fact they are one of the few business that are prospering in Ukraine, however they too are pressed to make quick turnaround on their constant stream of purchases, so very few of such establishments resell Soviet gold and silver jewellery as collectibles - most of these items are simply melted down. Lastly, it needs to be said that Ukraine, now more than ever, is very ideologically divided. Although most of Ukraine is neutral towards Russia and Europe, there are many Ukrainians that do not like Russia and everything that is associated with it - this includes Soviet jewellery. If we combine these two factors, the greatest economic crisis and the higher dislike for everything Russian, in modern Ukrainian history - we see the largest incentive to get rid of Soviet gold and silver jewelry that this country ever seen. And even if the civil war will miraculously end tomorrow, the economic crisis and the dislike for Russia will last for a long time to come. This means a guaranteed continuous loss of Soviet gold and silver in the region. What does this mean to the global Soviet jewelry market? The answer is simple - less Soviet gold and silver jewelry. Yes, while this crisis is taking place, there will be a slight drop in prices on local level, however this will eventually stop, and then the global market will realize that approximately 1/10 of all Soviet gold and silver that existed in the world is forever lost. You do not need to be an economist to see that; because of this loss - prices on what is left will drastically go up. So what should you do? Right now, this is a buyers market so follow advice of Warren Buffett - buy when everyone is selling, and sell when everyone is buying. There has never been a better time to buy Soviet gold and silver jewelry so don't miss this opportunity and take advantage of the situation! You will not only support the people of Ukraine but will make a great investment that is bound to provide high returns in the near future. As always, we do not throw around empty words - we lead by example. Yes we are buying Soviet gold and silver jewelry right now, so make sure to stay tuned as we will be revealing what we bought in our next reports!
