WORKMASTER: Johan Victor Aarne - FABERGE workmaster marks J.V.A and BA - active 1880 - 1904. Johan Victor Aarne was a gold - and silversmith in Imperial Russia and Finland who worked for FABERGE. Born in Tampere, Finland in 1863, he was the son of church sexton Johan Lindstrom. He completed his apprenticeship with Johan Erik Hellsten, a goldsmith in Tampere, and became a journeyman in Hameenlinne in 1880. For the next ten years, between 1880 and 1890, he worked for FABERGE in August Wilhelm Holmstrom's workshop. In 1890 he returned to Tampere to obtain his title of Master; he then ran his own workshop there for a year. In 1891 he moved to St. Petersburg to work exclusively for FABERGE until 1904. His workshop was at 58 Demidov Cross - Street/Ekatarinski Canal. His Cyrillic signature, BA, can be found on enamelled gold and silver articles from this time period. After the turn of the century his workshop employed twenty journeymen and three apprentices. In 1904 Aarne sold his workshop to Karl Gustaf Hjalmar Armfeldt and settled in Vyborg (Viipuri), Finland, where he ran a successful goldsmithing workshop for another thirty years. At that time his signature was J.V.A. He died in 1934 in Vyborg.

WIKIPEDIA: Peter Carl FABERGE, also known as Karl Gustavovich FABERGE was a Russian jeweller best known for the famous FABERGE eggs made in the style of genuine Easter eggs, but using precious metals and gemstones rather than more mundane materials. He's the founder of the famous jewelry legacy House of FABERGE. The House of FABERGE is a jewelry firm founded in 1842 in St. Petersburg, Imperial Russia, by Gustav FABERGE, using the accented name FABERGE, Gustav's sons Peter Carl FABERGE and Agathon FABERGE, and grandsons followed him in running the business until it was nationalized by the Bolsheviks in 1918.
