The present lot is a typical example of Fabergé’s adaptation of the Louis XVI idiom to a contemporary object of function. The influence of gold objects of the Louis XVI period on Fabergé is well documented; the celebrated copy of a snuff-box by J.E. Blérzy by head workmaster Michael Perchin is a particularly illustrative example (C. Forbes & R. Tromeur-Brenner, Fabergé: The Forbes Collection, New York, 1999, pp. 144-145). In addition to enamelled gold objects, Fabergé also produced lacquered gold objects in the Louis XVI idiom, such as the present lot. Another example of a lacquered gold bonbonnière by Fabergé was sold Christie's, London, 29 November 2010, lot 267.
