From Humble Origins to Imperial Splendor

M.S. Rau proudly showcases exceptional Fabergé creations that exemplify the pinnacle of decorative arts. What began as a modest St. Petersburg jewelry shop founded by Gustav Fabergé in 1842 was transformed by his visionary son Peter Carl into an international phenomenon. Under his leadership, the firm earned the coveted title of official purveyor to the Russian Imperial Court, creating objects of such breathtaking beauty that they forever changed the landscape of luxury craftsmanship.

The Alchemy of Artistry and Innovation

Fabergé's workshops elevated craftsmanship to unprecedented heights through revolutionary techniques and artistic vision. Their signature achievement—the seamless fusion of traditional Russian aesthetics with European influences—created a distinctive style immediately recognizable to connoisseurs. The firm's workshops employed over 500 master craftsmen, including specialists in guilloche engraving, miniature painting, and gem-setting. From the famous Imperial Easter Eggs with their ingenious surprises to delicate figurines carved from precious hardstones, Fabergé pieces captivated royalty across Europe and continue to enchant collectors worldwide today.
