Faberge, Imperial Eggs and Other Fantasies is a collection of photographs and stories about some of the dazzling fantasies created by the House of Faberge to amuse Russia's ill-fated Imperial Family in the twilight years of the Russian Empire. From the fabled Imperial Eggs, presented by the Czar to his wife every Easter, to gold-mounted ebony knitting needles for a domestically inclined Grand Duchess, the full genius of Faberge is evident in this selection of his objects de luxe. All the works presented are from the collection of Forbes Magazine.
