RUSSIA-FABERGE-EGGS
Faberge 1898 "Lilies of the Valley egg" displayed at an exhibition in the Kremlin in Moscow,18 May 2004. A famed collection of nine Faberge imperial eggs went on display in Russia for the first time, brought back to the nation by one of its wealthiest tycoons in a lavish gesture seen as an effort to curry favour with the Government. Faberge created a total of 50 imperial eggs between 1885 and 1916. The eggs were first commissioned from Faberge by Tsar Alexander III in 1885 as Easter gifts for his wife, the Tsarina Maria Feodorovna.
