"Peter Carl Fabergé reinvented the rules to reflect his spirit"

What makes Fabergé so impossibly irresistible even after so many years? Is it the attribute of timelessness, a spirit of inventiveness, or an unshakable commitment to craftsmanship? Perhaps it’s all of this and much more. Fabergé, one of the world’s most celebrated and revered artist jeweller, has brought to life extraordinary jewellery, watches, objets d’art and bespoke commissions for a discerning international clientele with an unfailing regularity.

Founded in 1842, Fabergé has been one of the most sought-after names in jewellery ever since Peter Carl Fabergé created the fifty groundbreaking Imperial Easter Eggs for the Romanov family between 1885 and 1916. Fabergé was officially ‘re-launched’ on September 9, 2009, and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gemfields Ltd. Today, the brand celebrates ‘A Life in Colour’, deriving inspiration from its hallowed past to create original pieces that honour the Maison’s dazzling legacy.

Crafting modern-day heirlooms with its recent artistic alliances, including the Fabergé X Regent Seven Seas Cruises ‘Journey in Jewels’ Egg (2023), the Fabergé X Game of Thrones Egg (2021), the Fabergé X Rolls-Royce ‘Spirit of Ecstasy’ Egg (2018), and the Fabergé Pearl Egg (2016); and with the addition of the Fabergé X 007 Egg to Fabergé’s modern legacy, the brand continues to pen a new chapter in its history.
