The Faberge World Egg

The myth of the World Egg is almost as old as the Earth itself and has lost none of its fascination. With the World Egg FABERGE brings the myth to perfection. The sphere is hand modelled and consists of 18 karat gold. The oceans are fashioned from blue enamel, the subsurface is hand guilloched. Just as precious as this creation is the egg that surrounds it: Planet Earth nestles beneath a diamond cupola comprising 2,839 diamonds, reflecting the glory of this creation a thousand times. The egg is set with diamonds both inside and out - symbolising the stars of the firmament and the intransience of the universe. The craftsman requires two whole weeks for the setting of those stones alone. The egg, valued at £350,000 is crowned by a D flawless 1.0 carat diamond, perfect in cut and proportions. The slim plinth is enamelled in pink and black, decorated with sweeping, hand guilloched lines. Imbued with a lightness, the creation emits a hint of the ethereal.

The World Egg is an expression for the universal creative energy of FABERGE, which brings lustre to the beauty of creation time and time again. The combination of rare craft techniques and precious materials serves to create a true wonder of beauty. The jewellery art of FABERGE has long been one of the most beautiful forms of expression for the world of nature.
