Fabergé Friday

It's Friday again! Amazing how fast the weeks go. Feels like I'm constantly writing these Fabergé posts. Oh well. Can't get enough of pretty things! And here are three more - three shirt studs, made around 1910!

The studs are made of gold. The front is covered in translucent white enamel over a guilloché sunburst pattern. In the middle sits a lapis lazuli cabochon. The whole thing is surrounded by reeds bound by two colored ribbons. The studs are 0.6'' (1.5 cm) in diameter, and they come in their original fitted holly wood box. For 14,500 USD they can be yours. You find them at John Atzbach Antiques.

Fabergé Friday

Sometimes when you sew and need buttons for your creation, it can be difficult to find the perfect buttons! But now I have found the perfect buttons - before I have even sewed anything to put them in... Since it's Friday I guess it's not so difficult to guess they come from Fabergé... They were made by workmaster Erik Kollin around the year 1890, and here they are!

The six stud buttons are 0.5'' (1.3 cm) in diameter, and made of white gold covered in white translucent enamel over a radiating wave patter. They come in their original fitted box, and will cost you 15,500 USD. You find them at John Atzbach Antiques!
