A Polished Orb Of Nephrite Jade Lies At The Center Of The Luxurious Handle Of This Fabergé Cane.

In Every Way, This Unique Cane Exudes The Luxury And Artistry For Which Fabergé Is Celebrated.

The House Of Fabergé Was Founded In 1842 In Saint Petersburg, Russia, By Gustav Faberge. In 1872, Peter Carl Fabergé Took Over His Father’S Small Jewelry Atelier And Transformed It Into The World’S Largest Decorative Arts Enterprise Of Its Kind. The Firm Built A Devoted Clientele, Including Members Of The Romanov Imperial Family, For Whom They Crafted Their Most Precious Pieces And The Firm’S Celebrated Easter Eggs. In 1917, The Russian Revolution Brought An End To The Romanov Dynasty, The Exile Of Peter Carl Fabergé To Switzerland And A Definitive Halt To The Original House Of Fabergé. In The Wake Of The Revolution, Many Fabergé Treasures Were Lost Or Destroyed. Previously Held In The Prestigious Wartski Collection, This Walking Stick Is Exemplary Of The High-Quality, Luxury Creations Of The Firm That Remain Prized By Collectors.
