Faberge jewelry

In 1872, Peter Carl Faberge took over his father’s jewelry workshop, which had been recognized in St. Petersburg in 1842. His technical mastery as a goldsmith put him on par with the world’s most famous jewelers. He drew his motivation from the art of earlier generations which he found in the well-stocked treasury of the Hermitage. As Supplier to the Imperial Court of Russia, Faberge is best known for his unique series of 50 jeweled Imperial Easter eggs dating from 1885-1916. His patrons included most of the world’s royalty and other wealthy customers of his time.
Following nine decades in the dark, the mystic jewelry brand Faberge is back in business with a dramatic high-end Faberge jewelry collection.

The new House of Faberge has the cooperation of two of Carl Peter’s great-granddaughters, and investment from a South African classified equity firm. And it has just unrestricted the first high-end jewelry collection under the name of Faberge for nearly 100 years. The aim is to reinterpret Faberge’s work.

Faberge selected Parisian artist-jeweler Frederic Zaavy to create an first collection of 100 items at his studio in Paris. The collection uses hundreds or thousands of tiny gems on each piece to create mosaic effects on rings, brooches, earrings and necklaces. The collection ranges from $58,000 to $8 million. Featured here is one of Tatiana Faberge’s favorite pieces in the collection, a $335,000 Fire Bird Brooch.
