Special Value - Fabergé Eggs: Masterpieces from Czarist Russia
Fabergé Eggs: Masterpieces from Czarist Russia
ENLARGE

By Susanna Pfeffer

Peter Carl Fabergé (1846–1920), preeminent master goldsmith of Russia at the turn of the 20th century, is best known for his imperial Easter Eggs. Commissioned annually by Czars Alexander III and Nicholas II, these remarkable creations—wrought of gold, silver, and platinum and lavished with fine enamel work and precious jewels—were presented as gifts to the Czarinas to celebrate the most joyous of the Russian holidays. This book provides a close look at more than three dozen eggs designed by Fabergé, and includes color plates and detailed descriptions for each.

112 pages, 48 full-color illustrations, 9 1/4 in. x 12 1/4 in. Hardcover; clothbound, with jacket.
