Russia's most celebrated yolk hero
Handcrafted tribute to the legendary Romanov masterpieces
The Czar’s jeweler was a genius. As the creator of decorative pieces for Russia’s royalty, the master craftsman and his assistants created dozens of unique Imperial Eggs. No two were the same and each is now worth a fortune. The process usually took an entire year of design, planning and fabrication. As the royal jeweler, he was able to retain some of the best goldsmiths, enamelers, silversmiths, jewelers and stonecutters in the world. Together they invented jewelry techniques, mixed bold new colors and pushed their creativity and skill far beyond where they had gone before. It’s fitting then that we pay tribute to Russia’s legendary royal egg art with some innovation of our own.
This decorative, enameled egg evokes the style of the Romanov masterpieces. Regal colors dance among the ornate, hand-painted design that’s blooming with flowers. And what’s the big secret? The hinged egg flips open to hold a few of your favorite things. Truly eggs-quisite!
