EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a stunning Cigarette Box created in 1886 by the renowned Russian jeweler, Carl Faberge. The box, measuring 1.85x9.3x6.9 cm, is an exquisite example of Faberge's craftsmanship and attention to detail. Made from gold, enamel, diamonds, and cord, this ornate piece is a true work of art. Its intricate decoration and jewel-encrusted exterior make it a testament to the opulence of the imperial Russian era. The inscription on the box adds another layer of intrigue; it reads "In Remembrance/from Sandro/Sevastopol/1886/6 May" in Cyrillic script. This personal touch further enhances its historical significance and provides a glimpse into its past owners' lives. Currently housed at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA as part of The India Early Minshall Collection, this cigarette box continues to captivate viewers with its beauty and grandeur. With its elaborate design and meticulous craftsmanship, this Faberge creation exemplifies the concept of objet de vertu - an object valued for both its utility and aesthetic appeal. It serves as a reminder that even everyday items can be transformed into extraordinary pieces through artistic vision and skillful execution. As we admire this photograph print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back to a time when luxury knew no bounds – where every detail was meticulously crafted to create objects that were not only functional but also breathtakingly
