made in St. Petersburg between 1899 and 1903

workmaster August Hollming

This egg is slightly bigger than most Faberge pendant eggs. The diamond also makes it heavier.

Deep strawberry red translucent enamel is of very fine quality. The egg is in excellent condition.

The egg is set with a rose-cut diamond.

Height w/o ring 21,5 mm (13/16 in.)

It is a choice example of Faberge design and craftsmanship.

Marked with assayer’s initials of Yakov Liapunov,

56 zolotniks Russian Imperial gold standard (14K/583 gold), and workmaster’s initials of August Hollming
