Description: The exhibition 'Romance to Revolution' at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, which ran until 8th May 2022, was a breathtaking display of the Carle Faberge's internationally recognized firm and his relationship with London. The exhibition focuses on the relatively unknown Anglo-Russian nature of his enterprise, with his only branch outside of Russia opening in London in 1903.
Faberge is best known for his legendary Imperial Easter Eggs, spectacular creations with intricate details, but he in fact made also a variety of things, like carved hard stone figures of animals, cigar cutters, tiaras and letter openers.
Royalty, aristocrats, American heiresses, exiled Russian Grand Dukes, Maharajas, financiers with newly-made fortunes, and socialites were buying gifts of unparalleled luxury for each other.
Queen Alexandra of England, the sister of the Empress Maria of Russia, adored the artwork of Faberge and she and her husband King Edward became some of the company's most important customers.
