Antique Imperial Guilloché Enamel Egg Pendant, Workmaster Hjalmar Armfeltd
By Fabergé
Located in Chesterland, OH
Imperial Gilt Silver Guilloché Enamel Egg Pendant, Workmaster Hjalmar Armfeltd, St Petersburg, 1908-1917
We are pleased to present another unique item from our collection—an elegant miniature egg pendant adorned with guilloché enamel from the era of the Russian Empire. This exquisite piece was crafted in St. Petersburg by master Hjalmar Armfeltd at the beginning of the 20th century.
The pendant measures 21.5 mm in length (excluding the hanging ring) and 14.5 mm in width, with a weight of 5.3 grams. It remains in excellent vintage condition, without loss or damage to enamel.
Notable marks can be found on the pendant’s hanging ring: the Greek letter “α” (alpha), indicating its inspection by the St. Petersburg Assay Office, “88,” as well as the woman’s head in a kokoshnik and the Cyrillic initials “ЯА” — the master's mark Hjalmar Armfeltd, a distinctive detail that adds to its allure.

Antique Russian Imperial Gilt Silver Cufflinks Enamel Freshwater Pearl
Located in New York, NY
Immerse yourself in the opulence and history of Tsarist Russia with this exceptionally rare pair of vintage Russian Imperial presentation cufflinks, masterfully crafted in gilt silver and exquisitely detailed with regal portraiture. Each cufflink showcases the profile portraits of the last Russian Emperor, Nicholas II, and his Empress, Alexandra Feodorovna, preserved in striking relief—a tribute to their enduring legacy and the twilight of Imperial Russia.
Encircling each portrait is a cobalt blue enamel rim, meticulously applied and accented with a delicate garland of genuine freshwater pearls, echoing the aesthetic refinement of Russian court accessories from the late Imperial era. The chain-link style design ensures comfortable wear while maintaining period authenticity.
The reverse side of each cufflink bears the 88 Russian silver standard hallmark, denoting a silver purity of 91.66%, along with the maker’s mark, affirming both origin and craftsmanship. These presentation pieces were likely intended for high-ranking members of court or as diplomatic gifts, reflecting the grandeur and exclusivity associated with Romanov-era ceremonial objects.
Historical Significance & Collectible Appeal
Imperial Portraiture: Featuring the beloved royal couple, Nicholas II and Alexandra, these cufflinks represent a poignant connection to the final years of the Russian Empire.
Museum-Worthy Craftsmanship: Enamel work and pearl embellishments of this caliber are hallmarks of turn-of-the-century Russian artisanship, typically seen in Fabergé-era creations.

Antique and Vintage Enamel Jewelry and Watches
From vibrant to subtle, elegant to cheeky, vintage and antique enamel jewelry and watches encompass a wide range of colors and styles, and there are almost as many techniques for creating these distinctive pieces.
Enameling is one of the oldest forms of surface decoration, used to add color to jewelry without having to rely on gemstones. Evidence of enameling goes back to ancient Greece. Throughout history, far-flung cultures favored different techniques. For example, cloisonné enamel was popular during the Byzantine Empire, while artisans living in France and Germany in the Middle Ages preferred champlevé. And Art Nouveau jewelry designers favored plique à jour.
At its core, enamel is the fusion of powdered glass to metal, and artists like enameling because it allows them to add a painterly or illustrative quality to their work.
Cloisonné (“cell” in French) is a technique in the creation of enamel jewelry that sees the use of thin wires of fine silver or gold to outline a design, which is then filled with enamel. The piece is subsequently placed in a kiln where the enamel is melted. Cloisonné is distinct because the individual wires remain visible, forming an outline of the motif.
Champlevé (“level field” in French) enamel is almost the opposite of cloisonné. In this technique, depressions in the metal are made by etching, engraving or chiseling, and then layers of enamel are built up until they rise slightly above the surface of the metal. The enamel is then fired and polished.
Guilloché is a technique in which translucent enamel is applied to a piece of metal that has had designs cut into it using a lathe. After the firing, the patterns on the metal become visible. Guilloché was made famous by Peter Carl Fabergé, whose jewelry house used the technique on many of its objets d’art as well as jewelry.
