EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases "The Nobel Ice Easter Egg" created by renowned jeweler Carl Faberge in 1910. The exquisite pendant is a true masterpiece, crafted with enamel, platinum, seed pearls, rock crystal, and diamonds. Standing at a height of 9.9 cm, it is currently held in a private collection. Believed to be designed by Alma Theresa Pihl, this stunning piece was commissioned for Emanuel Nobel – a Swedish-Russian oil baron and industrialist. The egg's intricate design reflects the opulence and grandeur associated with the Russian imperial court. The egg's surface resembles glistening icicles on a frosty winter day. Its pure white color evokes the beauty of snow-covered landscapes during the colder seasons. Adorned with delicate seed pearls and shimmering diamonds, it exudes an air of regality fit for royalty. What makes this Easter egg truly special is its hidden surprise - a miniature clock that can be revealed when opened. This unexpected feature adds an element of enchantment to an already extraordinary jewel. "The Nobel Ice Easter Egg" serves as both an objet de vertu and a symbol of ceremonial celebration. It represents not only Emanuel Nobel's appreciation for fine craftsmanship but also his desire to present something truly unique and precious to commemorate special occasions. Through this photograph captured by Bridgeman Images' eChristies Images division, viewers are transported into the world of luxury jewelry-making where every detail matters and each creation tells its own story.
