拍品专文

Keld Fenwick gained the rank of Captain in the Royal Horse Guards. The case was probably gifted by Millicent Montagu (1864-1942) to her son, Keld George Robert Fenwick (1892-1934), on his twenty-first birthday.
For a nearly identical cigarette case, described as the only example of a niello work by Fabergé, see H.C. Bainbridge, Peter Carl Fabergé, London, 1949, plate 116.
