We formulate necessary and sufficient conditions on a Riemannian metric that ensure its embeddability in a three-dimensional space of constant curvature as a surface of constant mean curvature. This theorem is a generalization of a number of classical results, in particular, the Ricci theorem, which gives a description of metrics arising on minimal surfaces in $\mathbb R^3$.
