Russian Imperial Magnifier

ENLARGE

Peter Carl Fabergé (Russian, 1846–1920) revolutionized the way jewelry was evaluated in Russian society by emphasizing creativity and workmanship over the use of precious stones and metals. His studio produced a wide variety of objets d'art, including magnificent jewelry, clocks, enamel cigarette cases, boxes, frames, and his ultimate achievement, a series of jeweled Easter eggs created for Czars Alexander III and Nicholas II of Russia. These delicate “works of fantasy” often memorialized important occasions in the reign of the Imperial Romanov family. Our pendant is based on an ornate magnifying glass originally designed by Fabergé. Made expressly for the Metropolitan Museum in the United States.

24K gold plate, hand enameled. Pendant length 3 in., width 1 1/2 in.; chain length 36 1/2 in.
