From the website of Firebird Workshop St., Petersburg, Russia: “We've combined traditional Nesting eggs with designs inspired by original Imperial Faberge Eggs. You may be wondering what is a Faberge egg? Fabergé eggs or Imperial eggs are jeweled eggs created by the House of Fabergé under the supervision of Peter Carl Fabergé. Manufactured between 1885 and 1917, as many as 69 were created, of which 57 survive today. They were special easter gifts from an emperor to his wife and mother. Now, these nesting eggs have been around for way longer than the nesting doll itself. Some historians believe that the Matryoshka was inspired by the nesting easter eggs. So like matryoshka dolls, nesting eggs open up to reveal a smaller egg inside. By painting and decorating nesting eggs in the style of Faberge eggs, we have created a unique ornament/gift/decor item unseen or unheard of before. Here's a list of imperial eggs that inspired our Faberge nesting eggs. ▪ The Imperial Coronation egg (1897) ▪ The Lilies of the Valley egg (1898 ) ▪ The Rosebud egg (1895) ▪ The Rose Trellis (1907) ▪ The Twelve Monograms egg (1896) ▪ The Swan egg ( 1906) Our Faberge nesting eggs may not be as extravagant as the imperials, but they're equally handmade by professional artists. We make them using: ✔ Premium linden wood ✔ Swarovski crystals ✔ Egg Tempera SIZES: 5 pieces nesting egg 3 pieces nesting egg” Please see photos and message with questions
