This 1842 Yellow Gold Grande Egg Pendant features the Fabergé hallmark set in polished 18 karat yellow gold on a 1.3mm trace chain. The chain measures 45-50cm in length, whilst the pendant measures 20mm in height and 3.75mm in depth. In keeping with Fabergé's penchant for surprise, a ruby, responsibly sourced from Gemfields Montepuez ruby mine in Mozambique, is hidden at the back of the pendant. Rubies are a symbol of passion, prosperity and protection, making them the perfect secret addition to this striking new collection. The 1842 collection pays homage to the year when Gustav Fabergé opened his jewellery boutique in St. Petersburg. This fine jewellery collection is inspired by the gold jewellery and precious accessories Fabergé began producing in the years before the first Imperial Egg was born. Each piece showcases Fabergé's iconic egg-shaped hallmark, in 18k yellow gold.
