Rosebud Faberge Egg

Rosebud Fabergé style jewelry box. The original egg was made in 1895 for Nicholas II, who presented it to his wife, Empress Alexandra Fyodorovna. It was the first egg that Nicholas presented to Alexandra. Like the original egg, this one opens to reveal a yellow-enameled rosebud, which itself holds a bright red, enamel pendant with large faux cabochon on an 18" chain. Approximately 2½" tall. Gold plated stand for display.
