A MAGNIFICENT AND HIGHLY IMPORTANT IMPERIAL WINTER EGG
BY FABERGÉ, DESIGNED BY ALMA THERESIA PIHL, WORKMASTER ALBERT HOLMSTRÖM, ST PETERSBURG, 1913
The finely carved rock crystal egg delicately engraved on the interior with frost design, exterior applied with rose-cut diamond-set platinum snowflake motifs, further decorated with two vertical diamond-set platinum borders concealing a hinge on the side, surmounted by a cabochon moonstone dated ‘1913’; on a rock-crystal base formed as a block of melting ice, applied with rose-cut diamond-set platinum rivulets, centring a platinum pin in the middle to support the egg; the egg opening to reveal the 'surprise' suspended from a platinum hook – a double-handled trelliswork platinum basket, set throughout with rose-cut diamonds, filled with finely carved white quartz wood anemones, each flower with gold wire stem and stamens, the centre set with a demantoid garnet, the leaves delicately carved in nephrite, emerging from a bed of gold moss, the base of the basket engraved ‘FABERGÉ 1913’
The egg with base 5 5/8in. (14.2 cm.) high; the 'surprise' 3 ¼ in. (8.2 cm.) high
