Peter Carl Fabergé may be best known as the father of Fabergé eggs—those nonpareil Easter eggs originally commissioned by Russia’s emperor—but the jeweler’s work in fact comes in a vivid array of shapes and sizes. A selection of it can be found at the forthcoming exhibit “Celebrating Royal Fabergé – The Return†at A La Vieille Russie, the long-running gallery dedicated to Russian antiques. While rooted in Russian aristocracy, the curios reflect the global legacy of Fabergé, featuring a diverse range of designs sourced from far-reaching collections—including that of the British monarchy.
The Magazine Antiques wrote about our move and inaugural exhibition:
The storefront at the southwest corner of the Sherry-Netherland Hotel, at Fifth Avenue and 59th Street in Manhattan, is covered by a construction shed just now. Whatever is built there will seem weird because whatever it is won’t be A La Vielle Russie…Fortunately, since last November, ALVR and its owners, the Schaffer family, have enjoyed a comfortable—and decidedly brighter—new commercial home a block away at 745 Fifth Avenue, above the Bergdorf-Goodman annex.
