VAGABONDE BLEUE RING
Flooded with celestial colour, in the spirit of the Fauves, this intensely blue Vagabonde ring with its mix of raw and refined, explores the hypnotic, contemplative quality of the colour blue and the nobility of the sapphire, the gem of kings. A central superb blue sapphire is enfolded in elaborate swathes of blue sapphires, finely edged in white diamonds, and embedded with larger sapphires. Central superb blue sapphire of 12.46 carats is enfolded in elaborate swathes of blue sapphires, finely edged in white diamonds, and embedded with six larger sapphires totalling 10.04 carats.
ÉMOTION BLEUE EARCLIPS
Sculpted in the fluid, organic form of the Fabergé signature Émotion Rings, part of Les Fauves collection, these earrings are flooded with intense colour, always the emotional key to a jewel, as to any work of art. It was this depth of emotion that the Symbolist painters, and the Russian Fauves, aimed to explore in their work. Set in silver and yellow gold, deep, velvet blue sapphires of different sizes and cuts are impeccably pavé set onto undulating surfaces that ripple with light and shade.
Fabergé, the world’s most iconic artist jeweller, creates extraordinary jewellery, timepieces and objets d’art, as well as bespoke commissions for a discerning international clientele.
Founded in 1842, Fabergé has been the most revered name in jewellery ever since Peter Carl Fabergé became official goldsmith to the Russian Imperial Court; the house created exquisite jewels and objects, including the legendary series of lavish and ingenious Imperial Easter Eggs. Peter Carl Fabergé was renowned for his exquisite and artistic use of colour, making the most of each gemstone’s unique characteristics and developing a vibrant enamel palette. His worldwide reputation attracted royalty, nobility, tycoons, industrialists and the artistic intelligentsia of not only Paris, Moscow and London but also America and the Far East, becoming the ultimate gift purveyor.
In 1917, the Russian Revolution brought an abrupt end to the Romanov dynasty, and to the House of Fabergé. The company was nationalised, all production closed down and Peter Carl Fabergé and his family fled Russia.
Following its founder’s death in Switzerland, the Fabergé heirs lost the rights to the Fabergé name. History came full circle in October 2007 when Fabergé, under new ownership and direction, announced the reunification of the Fabergé brand with the Fabergé family. This opened a new chapter in the intriguing story of Fabergé, and set the stage for a total revitalisation of the Fabergé name and philosophy, in tune with its original values, aesthetics and spirit.
Today, Fabergé takes inspiration from its storied past to create eternally original pieces that, when worn, convey breath-taking individuality. By painting with the world’s finest coloured gemstones, Fabergé explores the art of colour through creations which are designed to become future heirlooms. Celebrating the concept of the artist-jeweller in today’s world of luxury, Fabergé traces the legacy of excellence in creativity, design and craftsmanship to introduce a new era of enchanting and enduring personal possessions and gifts for contemporary connoisseurs.
