Russian silver- and goldsmith
Kovsh by Rückert, 1899–1908, from the Khalili Collection of Enamels of the World

Feodor Ivanovich Rückert, (German: Friedrich Moritz Rückert), (1840 in Alsace — 1917 in Moscow) was a silversmith, goldsmith, and Fabergé workmaster of German origin.

In 1887, Ruckert began working with Russian jeweler and Fabergé egg maker, Carl Fabergé. His mark Ф.Р. (F.R. in Russian Cyrillic) can be found on cloisonné enamel objects made in Moscow, which he sold both independently, as well as under Fabergé.
