One hundred years after the original House of Fabergé was forcibly closed by Bolshevik revolutionaries in St Petersburg, this award-winning feature documentary charts the rich history behind the iconic company, from the unstoppable rise of 'artist jeweller' Carl Fabergé in 19th Century Imperial Russia to t he enduring legacy of Fabergé today. Shot in multiple locations across Europe, USA and Russia, the film features Fabergé pieces by gracious courtesy of Her Majesty the Queen in London, His Serene Highness Prince Albert of Monaco, and many more of the world's great collectors. The film also includes exclusive interviews with Tatiana and Sarah Fabergé, and a distinguished group of museum curators, independent art experts and historians. Culminating in the exclusive unveiling of what is generally perceived to be the single most spectacular and valuable Fabergé object ever created - the Winter Egg of 1913 - the documentary also presents hundreds of other exquisite Fabergé pieces in intricate detail, many of them for the first time on film.
