Azov Memorial Egg joins the Faberge series, the previous issues of which were very popular among collectors.
Fabergé Eggs are known all over the world. These are goldsmiths' works from the times of Alexander III of Romanov and Nicholas II. They were made in the studio of the court jeweller on the order of the emperor as an Easter gift. They were made of gold, silver, precious stones, ivory, mother-of-pearl and enamel.
The first Easter egg in the Fabergé workshop was made in 1884 on behalf of Alexander III as a gift for the emperor's wife Maria. After the death of Alexander III, his son, Nicholas II, continued the tradition of ordering one egg for Easter. Inside the egg there was usually a surprise hidden, which until the opening of the gift was strictly confidential.
In 1900, Fabergé eggs were exhibited at the World Exhibition in Paris. The eggs were awarded gold medals and Fabergé received the Legion of Honour and became famous throughout Europe. By the outbreak of the revolution, 54 Tsarist eggs had been produced.
These works still inspire many people to this day. The Mint of Poland issued a series of coins, each of which contains an image of a different Fabergé Eggs. Beautiful, mirror coins with colourful overprint delight everyone.
In this version, the reverse of the coin is decorated with laser printing and tarnishing. The whole is placed in an elegant, dedicated packaging with a certificate of authenticity.
The Azov Memorial Egg was made under the supervision of Russian jeweller Peter Carl Faberge in 1891, commissioned by Tsar Alexander III and was an Easter gift for his wife, Tsarina Maria Fyodorovna. The egg commemorates the voyage of Tsarovich Nicholas and Grand Duke George to the Far East, on the ship "Pamiat Azov", which took place in 1890.
