It’s hard to imagine anything more spectacular and luxurious
than Faberge. Commissioned by Czar Alexander the III in the late 1880's as an Easter gift for his
wife, the tradition caught on and continued for two generations. Today they are still considered the most important feat of the Russian Orthodox Church.
These beautiful eggs were [and still are] extremely rare and are of the finest quality and
craftsmanship. Undisputedly works of unparalleled art; they were the vision and creation of
Peter Carl Faberge, a man whose innovation and attention to detail made him
personal jeweler to Russian Royalty. Of the 56 eggs he created, only 46 are
accounted for which only seems to add to their intrigue.
We could rave all day about these truly astounding tokens of
love, but they really do speak for themselves.
