Richard George Penn Curzon, the 4th Earl Howe (1861-1929) was a British courtier and politician. He was Lord Chamberlain to Queen Alexandra, sister of Dowager Empress Maria Feodorovna, between 1903 and 1925. A number of objects from the Royal Collection were purchased by Earl Howe from the London branch of Fabergé and presented to Queen Alexandra as gifts. They include a silver model of the wolf-hunter Vassilka and a nephrite frame with the view of Sandringham church.

We are grateful to Dmitry Krivoshey for his assistance with the research of the present lot.
