A lovely silver TABLE SPOON, FORK and KNIFE with script monogram 'AV' in Cyrillic for Antonie Volkoff, former Consul General of the Imperial Russian Government in Chicago in the 1910's. When you touch and hold a piece of FABERGE sterling you are in contact with something very special coming down to you not only from the era of the czars but of an ancestry far more ancient: for it is typical of all the imperial courts there have ever been.

HISTORY: Peter Karl Faberge was born into a German-Baltic family of jewellers and took over the family's jewelry shop in 1872. Besides working as a jeweller he also worked at the Hermitage in St. Petersburg, where he cataloged the jewelry collection together with his brother. FABERGE obtained his breakthrough with the now world-famous FABERGE eggs; the first egg was awarded a gold medal by the Russian Emperor Alexander III. Henceforth, numerous masterpieces were created, many commissioned by the royal family. The Russian Revolution ended FABERGE's business, but today his creations remain highly sought after by collectors. The ornate eggs fetch several million euros on the international auction market.
