The World of Fabergé
In 1872, Peter Carl Fabergé took over his father’s jewellery business and, together with his younger brother Agathon, quickly turned it into an internationally recognised brand. Their success changed the direction of the jewellery world. The time when diamonds, emeralds, sapphire, rubies and pearls dominated taste was ending. In their place came design-focused jewellery and decorative objects that highlighted natural coloured semi-precious stones and Fabergé’s newly revived, highly refined enamelling techniques.The legendary Easter eggs created for the Russian Imperial family are widely regarded as the height of jewellery craftsmanship. Alongside traditional jewellery, Fabergé offered clients objets de luxe, including the more playful objets de fantaisie. Today, these pieces are held in major museums around the world and in the private collections of royal families. Fabergé’s craftsmen reached remarkable levels of skill. The combination of original design and flawless technical execution became the signature formula that makes any Fabergé creation an exceptional gift — an object of desire that is hard to resist.

[IMG: About Fabergé Jewellery]

[H2]
1685-1830
The ancestors of the Fabergé family — then bearing the name Favry — came from Picardy in northern France, centred around Amiens. The Favry family were Huguenots (Protestants) in a predominantly Catholic country. In 1685, when Louis XIV revoked the Edict of Nantes, which had granted legal protection to Huguenots, the Favrys were forced to flee north-eastwards to Protestant regions of Europe.For many years, the descendants of the emigrant family lived in Germany, in Schwedt-on-Oder — where, in 1768, Pierre Favry, Carl Fabergé’s grandfather, was born. Over time, the pronunciation of the family name evolved: Favry, Fabrier, and later, in a Germanic form, Faberge. It is known that in the 1790s the cabinetmaker Peter Fabrier settled in Pernau (now Pärnu) in the Livonian Governorate of the Russian Empire, where he soon adopted the surname Faberge.Gustav Faberge, the son of Peter Faberge, was born in Pernau (now Pärnu) in 1814. He chose the profession of a jeweller and, in the 1830s, moved to St Petersburg, the capital of the Russian Empire. He first worked under Andreas Spiegel, a master known for gold snuffboxes and jewellery caskets and later joined the celebrated firm of Keibel, the supplier of jewellery. Later, Gustav joined the celebrated firm of Keibel — the supplier of jewellery and cabinet goldwork to the Russian Imperial family. This marked the beginning of what would become the legendary House of Fabergé.

[H2]
The Foundation laid
[H2] 1842

In 1842, Gustav Faberge married Charlotte Jungstedt, the daughter of the artist Carl Jungstedt, and opened a small workshop and jewellery shop on Bolshaya Morskaya Street — one of St Petersburg’s most fashionable addresses. The shop was first located in the basement of Paul Jacques’s house, but ten years later, the business moved across the street to the newly built Ruadze House — now it is Bolshaya Morskaya 18. It was at this time that Gustav changed the spelling of his surname to Fabergé: in Russian, “ge” is pronounced “zhe”, placing the stress on the final syllable gave the name a distinctly French sound.

[H2]
the formative years

[IMG: About Fabergé Jewellery]

[H2]
1846 - 1882
The couple’s elder son, Peter Carl Fabergé (known within the family simply as Carl), was born soon afterwards. He received his early education at the Annenschule in St Petersburg. In the early 1860s the family moved to Dresden, where Agathon, Gustav Fabergé’s second son, was born in 1862. Carl studied at the Handelsschule until the summer of 1863. While living in Dresden, he frequently visited the Grünes Gewölbe — the museum founded in 1723 by Augustus the Strong, based on the treasury of the princely House of Wettin.

[IMG: About Fabergé Jewellery]

[H2]
1863 - 1867
In 1863-64, Carl Fabergé set out on an educational journey — the traditional Grand Tour of Europe. He trained with respected jewellers in Germany, France and Britain, including Friedmann in Frankfurt am Main and the Schlöss firm in Paris. He then spent four months in Florence, where he studied the collections of Europe’s leading art museums. After returning to St Petersburg, Carl was granted access, from 1867 onwards, to the Treasury Gallery of the Imperial Hermitage — the museum founded by Catherine II. There he worked on the repair and restoration of historic jewels, studying pieces ranging from Scythian gold antiquities to the refined French snuffboxes of the eighteenth century. This experience enabled him to master and refine traditional jewellery techniques. The masterpieces of earlier centuries undoubtedly inspired Carl Fabergé’s future creations. His mentor in the craft was Peter Hiskias Pendin, the leading master in Gustav Fabergé’s workshop.

[IMG: Fabergé Group]

[H2]
1872
In 1872, Carl Fabergé married Augusta Julia Jacobs, the daughter of the court cabinetmaker Gottlieb Jacobs. Shortly after his eldest son’s marriage, Gustav Fabergé retired from the business and settled permanently in Dresden, where he died in 1894. From that point onwards, the firm was headed by Carl Fabergé, who continued to rely on the guidance of Peter Pendin.

[H2]
PETER CARL FABERGÉ TAKES CHARGE

[IMG: About Fabergé Jewellery]

[H2]
1882
In 1882, at the All-Russian Exhibition in Moscow, Fabergé’s works were awarded a gold medal. Emperor Alexander III, who had ascended the throne in 1881, saw the pieces at the exhibition and ordered that they be shown in the Hermitage as exemplary works by outstanding Russian jewellers. In the same year, following the death of Peter Pendin, Carl Fabergé summoned his younger brother Agathon from Dresden to join the family firm.

[H2]
THE RISE OF THE HOUSE OF FABERGÉ

[IMG: Fabergé Imperial Hen Egg]

[H2]
1885 - 1887
In 1885, Alexander III conceived the idea of an Easter gift for the Empress in the form of a jewelled egg: a gold egg covered in enamel, containing a surprise in the shape of a golden hen, a diamond-set crown and a small ruby pendant-egg. The Emperor asked his brother, Grand Duke Vladimir Alexandrovich, to negotiate the commission with Carl Fabergé. The Imperial couple were delighted with the result, and from that moment the tradition of ordering Easter eggs from Fabergé was established. It continued under Alexander III’s son, Nicholas II, who commissioned two eggs each year — one for his mother and one for his wife. In total, the House of Fabergé created fifty Imperial Easter eggs, each with a unique design. In the same year, Fabergé was granted the honorary title of Supplier to the Court of His Imperial Majesty.In 1887, the Moscow branch of the House of Fabergé opened at 5 Kuznetsky Most. Its first director was Oscar Pihl, the son-in-law of August Holmström, one of the firm’s leading workmasters.

[IMG: Nordic-Exhibition-Building888_FABERGÉ]

[H2]
1888 - 1890
In 1888, the House of Fabergé presented its masterpieces at the Nordic Exhibition in Copenhagen — once again hors concours, as the jury included Eugene, Carl Fabergé’s eldest son. The company was awarded a special diploma of the exhibition.In 1890, the firm’s headquarters in St Petersburg doubled in size. Carl Fabergé was appointed Appraiser to the Imperial Court, an official recognition of his outstanding expertise. In the same year, in Moscow, he purchased a silverware factory located in the San-Galli building. The unified Moscow branch was placed under the direction of Allan Bowe, while Oscar Pihl continued to head the jewellery workshop.

[H2]
INTERNATIONAL ACCLAIM

[IMG: About Fabergé Jewellery]

[H2]
1900 - 1902
In 1900, the House of Fabergé took part in the Exposition Universelle in Paris, where the Imperial Easter eggs were presented to the public for the first time. Despite exhibiting hors concours, the maison received a gold medal. The jury recognised Carl Fabergé as a master of the highest order and appointed him a Chevalier of the Légion d’Honneur, the foremost honour of the French Republic. His son Eugene was awarded the Palmes Académiques, making him an Officer of the Academy of Fine Arts, while the firm’s leading workmasters received gold and silver medals. The exhibition brought considerable commercial success, expanding Fabergé’s international clientele and generating commissions from across the world.Fabergé’s St Petersburg headquarters relocated to a dedicated purpose-built building at 24 Bolshaya Morskaya Street, owned by Carl Fabergé. Designed by Carl Schmidt — a relative of the family — the neo-Gothic building, clad in Karelian granite, stands to this day. It housed the workshops, an art studio, administrative offices, a unique art library, and the family’s spacious private apartment.At the beginning of the twentieth century, the House of Fabergé was at the height of its fame. It had become the largest jewellery firm in the Russian Empire, employing around five hundred artists and craftsmen. In 1902, the first public exhibition of Fabergé objects in Russia was held at the St Petersburg mansion of Baron von Dervis. It featured exceptional objets de vertu belonging to the Imperial family — including, for the first time before a Russian audience, nineteen Imperial Easter eggs created between 1885 and 1901. To this day, it remains the largest exhibition of Fabergé jewels and objects ever assembled.

[H2]
1903 - 1906
In the early years of the twentieth century, the House of Fabergé saw rapid expansion. In 1900, the firm opened a branch in Odessa — comprising both a workshop and a boutique — under the direction of Allan Gibson. In 1903, a London branch followed, with Allan Bowe, Fabergé’s business partner, as its first manager. In 1906, a further branch was established in Kyiv, on the city’s main thoroughfare, Khreshchatyk.Later, when the London branch of the House of Fabergé was re-opened, it was placed under the management of Nicholas, the youngest of Carl Fabergé’s four sons. The other three also worked for the family enterprise: the elder brothers, Eugene and Agathon, in the St Petersburg headquarters, and Alexander — notably a talented artist — in the Moscow branch.By this time, the honours bestowed upon the firm had grown considerably. To the title of Court Jeweller to the Russian Imperial Court, granted by Nicholas II, and Court Jeweller to the Royal House of Sweden and Norway, were added the distinction of Court Jeweller to the British Royal Court, conferred by George V, and the title of Court Jeweller to the King of Siam, awarded by King Chulalongkorn. Carl Fabergé and representatives of the firm made regular visits to the Kingdom of Siam from 1905 onwards, at the invitation of Prince Chakrabon of Phitsanulok, a graduate of the Page Corps in St Petersburg.

[H2]
1908 - 1914
During these years, the House of Fabergé reached the height of its success. The most elaborate and artistically accomplished Imperial Easter eggs were created, along with major commissions for the tercentenary celebrations of the Romanov Dynasty and an increasingly active expansion into international markets. The firm also acquired the stone-carving workshop of Carl Werfel and the jewellery enterprise of Feodor Lorié.

[H2]
WAR AND REVOLUTION

[IMG: About Fabergé Jewellery]

[H2]
1914 - 1918
The First World War forced the House of Fabergé to redirect much of its production towards the needs of the front. In St Petersburg, the firm manufactured syringes, while in Moscow it produced primer sockets for artillery shells — a measure by which Carl Fabergé sought to protect his craftsmen and workers from being drafted. Even so, many talented masters went to war; among those lost was one of the firm’s finest stone-carvers, Peter Derbychev.Amid the country’s growing economic instability, Carl Fabergé decided to restructure the business as the “Partnership of K. Fabergé”, dividing the firm into 600 registered shares, each valued at 5,000 roubles, for a total capital of three million roubles. At the same time, the London branch was closed, and the remaining stock were sold to the Parisian jeweller Lacloche.After the February Revolution of 1917, many of Petrograd’s wealthiest residents entrusted their jewels to the House of Fabergé, which possessed the most secure safe in the city. Following the October Revolution, an attempt was made to protect the company by leasing the building at 24 Bolshaya Morskaya Street to the Swiss mission. This proved unsuccessful, and in September 1918 Carl Fabergé left Russia forever.

[H2]
THE FABERGÉS FLEE

[H3] 1918-1920
In November, Peter Carl Fabergé left St Petersburg on the last diplomatic train for Riga from where he fled to Germany. In December, Eugène together with his mother, travelled in darkness by sleigh and on foot to Finland. The Bolsheviks imprisoned Agathon and Alexander, the Fabergés’ two middle sons.In June 1920, Eugène travelled to Germany to take his father to Switzerland where other members of the family had taken refuge. Peter Carl Fabergé died in Pully (near Lausanne) in September.

[H3] 1924
Eugène, together with his brother Alexander (who had managed to escape from the USSR when a friend bribed guards) settled in Paris. They establish Fabergé & Cie, which traded in and re-stored objects made by the House of Fabergé, as well as general jewellery and objets d’art. The pieces they made were clearly marked Fabergé, Paris so as to avoid any confusion with items made by the House in Russia.

[H2]
THE FAMILY LOSES ITS NAME

[IMG: About Fabergé Jewellery]

[H2]
1937
Sam Rubin, an American of Russian descent, started a perfume business. Upon the suggestion of his friend Dr Armand Hammer, who at the behest of Lenin became the Soviets’ first foreign concessionaire, branded his perfumes Fabergé and formed Fabergé Inc. This was done without the family’s permission.

[IMG: About Fabergé Jewellery]

[H2]
1951
After discovering Rubin’s activities, the Fabergé family decided to settle out of court so as to avoid high legal fees. Rubin paid just US$25,000 to use their name solely for perfume.
