Autumn 2020
In celebration of World Animal Day (on October 4), Fabergé introduced a more contemporary take on charms, with the addition of a series of 12 baby animals to the Essence collection. Celebrating Fabergé’s love for surprise and wit, each piece is crafted from either yellow, rose or white 18k gold, and each possesses its own cheeky personality traits, inspired by Fabergé’s hardstone animals. These pieces also incorporate a contemporary use of an array of different coloured gemstones set for each animal’s eyes including Gemfields’ emeralds and rubies.
Peter Carl Fabergé was creating charms in the 1900s, following a Russian tradition at the time, where every Easter, Christians would offer a little egg to loved ones.
Fabergé was renowned for his quirky little animals, both created as charms and as ornaments in hardstone. The accentuation of specific characteristics of each subject also gave them distinctive personalities. Fabergé combined these hardstones with precious metals and gems, seamlessly integrating each with the other to create miniature works of art.
Each charm ranges from £1,200 to £1,320 and the collection is available to view at faberge.com
