Inspired by the legendary 1897 Imperial Coronation Egg, this exquisite miniature reflects one of the most celebrated jeweled Easter creations ever presented. The historic masterpiece was commissioned by Tsar Nicholas II as an Easter gift for Empress Alexandra Feodorovna, commemorating her 1896 coronation entry into Moscow. Its brilliant translucent yellow enamel shell symbolized her cloth-of-gold coronation gown and was adorned with imperial motifs and intricate latticework.
This openable egg is crafted from gold plated pewter, and features Austrian crystals and enamelled detail. It has been hand painted and contains a royal coach figurine inside. The exterior features gold latticework with crystals. The egg comes in a padded satin lined gift box.
