Fabergé Friday

I know I've posted one or two of Fabergé's frames before, and here comes another one, made by workmaster Henrik Wigström, around 1903-1908!




This diamond shaped gold frame is covered in translucent red enamel over a guilloché ground. The circular opening in the middle is edged with pearls, and the whole frame is bordered by a leaf chased, two colored gold border with rosettes at the corners. The front is decorated by four diamond set fleur-de-lis. The back of the frame is made of ivory, and it rests on a gold scroll strut. It's measurements are 3'' x 3'' (7.6 x 7.6 cm), and the price for it is 95,000 USD! Perfect for framing a photo of your favorite pet! Haha! Get it at John Atzbach Antiques.
