Why are Fabergé eggs so special?
It's hard to have a conversation about iconic royal heirlooms without mentioning the Fabergé eggs. Made for the rulers of Russia as gifts to their family during the late 1800s and early 1900s, they have become some of the most famous pieces of decorative art in history. Now scattered in museums and private collections around the world, these eggs, made from precious metals and adorned with innumerable jewels and gems, were once the most prized possessions of a dynasty on its way out. More than just beautiful heirlooms, they also mark the end of the nearly 300-year long era of the Romanov family’s reign over the Russian states. After the Bolsheviks ousted the Romanovs in 1917, almost all evidence of their reign was wiped away, the Fabergé eggs being an exception. Each of the more than 50 eggs, designed and created exclusively in the House of Fabergé workshop in Saint Petersburg, are exquisite feats of craftsmanship and are highly sought after by collectors across the globe. Intrigued? Read on to find out more about these feats of craftsmanship, and take a look at some of the most beautiful of the imperial Fabergé eggs.
