Lost Treasure Found After Almost 100 Years.
Chance of a lifetime to see one
of the most romantic Easter gifts ever made.
One of the missing Imperial Fabergé Easter Eggs made for the Russian Royal family will be on public view (Now Concluded) at Court Jewellers Wartski in Mayfair in the run up to Easter. The magnificent Third Imperial Fabergé Easter Egg will be on view for four days only from the 14th April 2014 and is unlikely to be seen again in public for a long time. The tragic story of the last Tsar and his family has been fascinating the world for almost a century and most people will immediately associate the iconic Fabergé eggs with the Russian Royal family. Only 50 of these lavish works of art were ever created, each of them unique design and a certain mysteriousness is attached to all of them.
