A lozenge-shaped Fabergé gold brooch centrally set with a cabochon chalcedony flanked by four diamonds, within a diamond-set frame.
Fabergé, as a creator of jewellery, needs no introduction. His brilliantly designed, highly original, superbly crafted works of art are known by all Fabergé lovers as his crowning glory. With his many thousands of such objects, painstakingly created of hardstone, silver, gold or enamel, much emulated but never equalled, he created an undisputed niche for himself.
