How do I tell if it’s a real Fabergé egg?

1 Answer
To tell if a Fabergé egg is real, you need to examine the craftsmanship and materials. Real imperial Fabergé eggs are made by hand out of metal and real jewels and are of exceptional quality, while replicas usually feature plastic and acrylic pieces. Keep in mind that only 57 Imperial Fabergé eggs still exist, and all of them are in private collections. As a result, you're unlikely to encounter a real Fabergé egg.
