Though Carl Eaberge was born in Russia, his heritage and decorative influences are French. His grandfather fled Huguenot persecution and became a Russian subject. His father, Gustav Faberge, began training in his father’s workshop and was apprenticed to a German goldsmith in Frankfurt. However, a subsequent tour of Italy and France and the tech niques of enamelers and gold smiths were his greatest influence. In 1870, at the age of 24, he took over his father’s firm. By 1882, his unique style of jewelry won him the gold medal at Mos cow’s Pan-Russian Exhibi tion...and the eye of Czar Alexander 111. The 1900 International Expo sition in Paris brought Faberge international recognition, as well as the Legion d’Honneur. Working with enamels, is con sidered one of the most difficult processes. Faberge combined en amels with the Guilloche pro cess, a decorative band or border that resembles a line of inter locking circles. Today, it is rarely used, for not only the cost but also potential technical problems. Faberge is still the acknowl edged master of enameling, a connection, and the use of pre cious gems and metals are not the only reasons for such astro nomical prices. The workman ship alone warrants them. Add the mechanical skill of the inte rior “surprises” that Faberge in vented for most of his eggs and it’s easy to understand. Consider the “Orange Tree” egg. When one of the jeweled oranges is pressed, a tiny, feathered-gold nightingale ap pears from the top of the tree to sing and flap it’s wings. One of the best-known Fa berge collectors was the late publisher Malcolm Forbes. He kept his paper clips in a Faberge dish on his desk. The Faberge eggs originated as decorative Easter gifts pendants and various objects d’art in the form of tiny eggs, popular in the 1880 s. In 1884, Czar Alexander 111 asked Fa berge to create an unusual Easter gift for his wife, the Em press Maria Feodorovna. The first of the imperial eggs was relatively simple. It con tained a golden yoke, which in turn held a tiny gold hen figu rine. The czarina was so pleased that the commission came annu ally, with each egg containing a hidden surprise. In 1896 when Nicholas II came to the throne he continued PUBLIC AUCTION^ HOUSEHOLD GOODS, ANTIQUES, IRON & TIN ITEMS, CAR (EXCELLENT CONDITION) SATURDAY, APRIL 21, 2001 8:00 a m.
