It was the first of fifty made for the Romanov family. Production ended with the revolution in 1917.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany eggs opened to reveal a hidden surprise. Others were small fantasies in gold, enamel and gems. Russian egg jewelry today still follows their shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow Faberge Used Color\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFaberge's firm was known for transparent enamel laid over engraved gold. The glass-like layer let the pattern show through. A blue green enamel pendant echoes that depth, though in a simpler way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGreen and blue look cool against yellow gold, like water or a peacock feather. The Faberge egg pendant shows the pairing well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWearing the Faberge Egg Necklace\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWear the egg at the collarbone on its gold plated chain. Keep the Faberge egg pendant dry and out of perfume. Wipe the enamel with a soft cloth. Store Russian egg jewelry in a pouch so the chain does not tangle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSee more in our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.museumize.com\/collections\/museum-jewelry-necklaces\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eMuseum Jewelry Necklaces\u003c\/a\u003e.

In 1882 he won a gold medal in Moscow for replicas of those objects. That skill with copies and fine detail helped him win the court. Russian egg jewelry begins with his eggs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFor More Reading from the Web\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSee the real Imperial Easter eggs that inspired the Faberge egg pendant in the Matilda Geddings Gray collection. \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/en\/exhibitions\/faberge\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eFaberge from the Matilda Geddings Gray Foundation Collection - The Metropolitan Museum of Art\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFollow Faberge from a family workshop to the Russian court.
