EDITORS COMMENTS
The Apple Blossom Egg, created in 1901 by artist Michail Pershin under the renowned Faberge manufacture, is a stunning testament to the opulence and craftsmanship of Russian art. This exquisite jewel, part of a private collection, showcases the intricate beauty of Art Nouveau design combined with traditional Easter egg symbolism. Crafted from gold and adorned with enamel and precious gems, The Apple Blossom Egg was commissioned by Tsar Nicholas II as a gift for his beloved wife Empress Alexandra Fyorodovna. Its delicate jade chest houses a hidden surprise within its meticulously detailed exterior: a miniature golden apple tree blossoming with vibrant flowers. This masterpiece represents not only the skillful workmanship of Pershin but also the close relationship between Nicholas II and Alexandra Fyorodovna. It serves as an emblematic symbol of their love and devotion during this pivotal period in Russian history. The Romanov dynasty's fascination with Faberge eggs continues to captivate collectors and art enthusiasts worldwide. Each egg produced by Faberge is considered an extraordinary treasure due to their rarity and historical significance. Through this photograph print, we are granted a glimpse into the world of imperial Russia where luxury met artistic brilliance. The Apple Blossom Egg stands as an enduring reminder of the splendor that once graced the court of Tsar Nicholas II.
