Article Feature: Jasper52 - Russian Imperial-Era Silver
Jasper52, the online curated auctions platform recently released a new article on Russian Imperial-Era Silver, below is an excerpt with our contribution to the article.
““Fabergé silver has always been a synonym for opulence and finest quality.
The combination of precious materials and supreme craftsmanship applies both to practical objects and non-utilitarian ones such as his ‘eggs,’ miniature animals and flowers. Nowadays some of Fabergé’s most famous decorative pieces, dating between 1885 and 1917, are displayed in the most important international museums. They are also avidly sought at auction and treasured by collectors. Although it’s very difficult to sum up Fabergé in a few words, what I admire most about his work is its uncompromising attention to detail and his priority to aesthetics over function.””
