Fabergé Friday

There are many, many Fabergé egg pendants left to go. So here comes another one - made by workmaster Henrik Wigström, sometime between 1908 and 1917!




The egg is covered in pale lilac enamel over a guilloché ground. Around the center leaps a matte gold band of finely chased acanthus leaves with white opaque enamel borders.




The size of the pendant is 13/16'' (2 cm), which is bigger than the usual Fabergé egg pendants - as you can see in the comparison picture above. The price for it is 18,500 USD, and it's for sale at Romanov Russia.
