Feberge eggs are the greatest eggs ever, they are the goat of eggs, so amazing, the most amazing eggs in the world and most beautiful, beats any other egg, worth every penny!
You know, this doccie should be all so serious.... All these Fabergé eggs and wotnot! Then up you pop with your cadbury cream egg, and that was it for me! I cracked up! You made my day! Thanx! 😁
Coming from a person that has actually seen some of these eggs in real life at a museum, all I can tell you is that they look even more amazing close up!
FORBES has sold his entire collection to the Fabergé museum in Saint-Petersburg, I visited this museum and it's fantastic. Never seen such wonderfull things.
Man, I am so baked. I was looking at Fabergé Egg bongs, I clicked this video by accident, and then became interested enough that I continued to watch the whole video 'till the very end. Now I am familiar with how the name came about
I can't possible see why someone spending their own money on beautiful art would be upsetting. People collect things they like and pay lots of money for them - comic books, coins, baseball cards, swords, books, houses, boats, cars.
Poor forbes ! Believing that purchasing 12 eggs would make him anywhere close to what the Tzar was . Forbes spent hundreds of millions on these eggs to show his wealth (by the way he never had 12 he "only" had 9) , but the Tzar only commissioned these as mere little presents for his wife and daughter . Buying an egg or even owning all 69 of them doesn't make anyone anywhere close to the original owner . Besides, the second Forbes kicked it, his family sold the eggs, all 9 of them .
ALL Faberge eggs should be on display in a Russian museum, only to be loaned out to museums in other parts of the world every few years or so, instead of being in a vault in someones private collection. They are part of Russian cultural heritage.
Nah, that’s stupid. And most of the faberge eggs out and about are in museums there’s three in the royal collection, three at the MET, several in LA museums, one in the Walters museum. And a few in private hands.
It’s enough to make you feel sorry for all the poor and starving people who died in Russia during the czars reign .The poor old romanovs how hard done bye they were it’s shocking. ........... .....
Not everyone comes to America. And since the Bush years we have many educated Americans leaving for work abroad. America lags behind in most leading indicators.
You miss the part the eggs were not that expensive to make, thus they would not feed any peasants... They were affordable at the time, I know the eggs I came across were on sale for around 5000 dollars, most eggs came at a expense less than 500 Russian rubbles at the time, according to the surviving "manifestos" from Fabergé. Also I know the eggs I seen in the late 80´s were real, since there was loose surprises of other eggs with them...
Fascinating documentary on the House of Faberge which created intricate jewelry and is known for designing the beautiful Russian Imperial Eggs which were created for the Russian Tsars, Alexander III and Nicholas II. Faberge made a wide gamut of items and became a court jeweler and goldsmith to the Russian monarchy, ranging from stick pins to decorative boxes and desk sets to cigarette cases and perfume bottles to photograph frames and clocks. All the pieces were made with intricate designs and flawless details. Some of the most intriguing items made by Faberge were the miniature carvings made from semi-precious stones and embellished with gold or silver. The hardstone carvings included animal figures such as elephants and pigs. One of the most interesting and surreal were the flower sculptures which featured intricate carved semi-precious stone flowers set in small vases with clear rock crystal or quartz used to simulate the water in the vase. The film shows and presents many rare and exquisite items all made from precious metals and stones held in museums and private collections. All this came to an end with the fall of the House of Faberge after the Russian revolution of 1917. By 1927, Joseph Stalin had come to power in Russia and he ordered that the Imperial jewels the Soviets had taken from the Kremlin's Winter Palace be appraised and then sold. Peter Carl Faberge’s son, Agathon, who was being held in a Russian prison, and was released to evaluate the value of the individual Faberge pieces held at the Kremlin Armory. Between 1930 and 1933, fourteen of the Faberge Imperial Eggs were sold and sent to Paris and London. Armand Hammer sold many Faberge items who was an unscrupulous Soviet agent and laundered money that financed espionage for the Soviets in the 1920s and '30s. Hammer was solicited to sell jewelry from the Tsar and many other items to include religious artifacts for the Soviet government. Much of this is documented in the book by Edward Jay Epstein, Dossier: The Secret History of Armand Hammer (Random House, 1996). Hammer purchased nothing but was consigned jewelry and other items to include selling fraudulent Romanoff treasures through his art gallery, many of the eggs were constructed from parts and remolded and restruck from the original Faberge dyes when the original period pieces were exhausted from the Soviet inventory. Interesting to note that many of the Faberge items were sold at various department stores throughout the USA via Hammer who set up a series of auctions and direct sales outlets. All profits went back to the Soviet government.
Most of the collection is in the US !!!!????? Out of the 69 eggs ever made , , 3 are in the Middle East, 2 are in Japan, 2 or 3 are in Germany , 1 is in Monaco, 2 or 3 are in Switzerland , 13 are in the US and 21 are in Russia and more than 2 third of them belong to Viktor Vekselberg, the rest are either lost or only the surprises remains . Do your homework , Forbes only owned 9 and they were all sold in 2004 and mostly bought by Viktor .
We were in Moscow right after the collapse of Marxism and saw an enormous exhibit of Faberge works for...ten bucks! It was really breath-taking, particularly the dozens of eggs.
The earliest History Channe programs were programs that produced by small griups or government that would explain a draft such as bookbinding or leather working of saddles.
I still think all this eggs where ever they are must go back to Rusia. I’m not Russian and have nothing to gain or lose. But it must go back to where the Tzar test. And stay there.
A Lot of Talk = ? The Quality and Special Detail You MISSED ! Call Your Video A Story Of Words .. Where are The Details in Photo ? I have Seen 2 Eggs and Held 1 . YOU Missed The Real ART . It's in the Details .
pitot1988 In the late 80´s, early 90´s, I came across 2 lost imperial faberge eggs, the chicken with the little gold eggs and the little chicks, and another one that had a carriage in a thrift store in Lisbon, 5 years ago I came across the tsar enamel egg with his picture, saying he was "st petersburg star", also I came across 4 chains, that were faberge, one was a keep sake that had Nicolau picture and his wife at a young age, both times I try to buy it, but the person seling it grew suspicious...We are getting plenty of people form the old USSR, problem is, they don´t know how much this think is worth, and gets smellted down. I also come across 3 other eggs that were not Imperial, a gold and blue one, and a green emerald one...
+Sir Kant Lol yes, Alexandra looks just like Daniel Radcliffe and Nicholas looks like Tim Curry XD I paused and scrolled down to see if anyone else had noticed!
They were sold off, legally, by the Russian Government after the revolution because they needed hard currency, and foreign hard currency is what they wanted. They sold them on the open market to the highest bidder.
Nearly all the Fabergé eggs are NOT in USA anymore, but in Moskou and the Fabergé museum in Saint-Petersburg, a Russian oligarch bought them from FORBES for about 100 million dollars or MORE....
- Your Majesty, people are dying of starvation on the streets of St. Petersburg - Too bad. Call that Faberge guy, I want another one of his expensive eggs.
Many years ago, an exhibit of a few Faberge eggs was held at an art museum in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Someone broke in and stole one egg, as I recall, and it was missing for two years. Obviously, the man who stole it knew its value lay in its totality, and it would be worth little if it were broken apart for its jewels. He carried it, in the trunk of his car, wrapped in some greasy old rags for that entire time. When he was stopped by police in a distant part of the state, he was somewhat relieved, since he had been nervous the entire time he had transported it. He was, of course, arrested, charged, and imprisoned. The egg had not even sustained a crack.
Wow. The eggs are beyond amazing. I don't even have the vocabulary to describe them. Funny though- the narrator says at about 6:48 or 49 that Faberge focused more on "'secular' images, such as the Tsar". That was an interesting comment. The idea of "secular", I believe, did not exist in imperial Russia. Nationalism was deeply tied into Orthodoxy. Any thoughts? C.
Good observation, yes that is a strange comment usually because the Russian Tsars were often canonized as saints into the Russian Orthodox Church and royal figures such as the tsars would have clearly been significant figures in the church much like the queen is in the Anglican Church.

This isn't history, its more inane pandering to the stupid... and the actual existence of such items as these eggs isn't far behind that.
such beautiful artistry.

Forbes spent hundreds of millions on these eggs to show his wealth (by the way he never had 12 he "only" had 9) , but the Tzar only commissioned these as mere little presents for his wife and daughter . Buying an egg or even owning all 69 of them doesn't make anyone anywhere close to the original owner .

i came for the viewing of the eggs, but now i wanna hear more of the love story being told!
people - especially in the west - forget, that before there was faberge, there was ivan kulibin, who made such eggs long before faberge.
I have a kinder egg!
These eggs belong to RUSSIA!

I saw Forbes collection of eggs ìn New York City many years ago,needless to say they were breathtaking.
Fun fact: The resurrection egg is not a true egg. It’s actually the surprise that was made for the Renaissance egg.
