Item description from seller

A very nice copy without flaw 9.5 X 11" 192 pages Weight Over 1 Kg. Edited by Christopher Forbes. More than 350 illustrations, including 80 plates in full colour. Formerly with Christie's London, author Alexander von Solodkoff is an expert on Russian objects. He tells the fascinating story of the rise of the House of Faberge and in particular of Carl Faberge, son of the founder, whose flair for the imaginative and inventive was given full rein. Von Sclodkoff also describes the royal and fashionable international clientele. Nearly all of the known Imperial Easter Eggs can be found in brilliant color photographs in the pages of this book. Most of the pieces are from the Forbes Magazine Collection, the largest in the US and one of the finest in the world. A complete catalog of the growing Forbes collection, a chronology, and a list of Faberge workmasters and their marks make this a useful reference book as well as a glittering presentation of some of the most dazzling examples of the jeweler's art created in the past century.
