Antique Imperial Russian Guilloché Gold Egg Pendant, by Fabergé Workmaster Anders Nevalainen, circa 1900 Presenting an exquisitely beautiful and charming guilloché enamel gold egg pendant featuring sky blue chalcedony. The upper section of the pendant is adorned with finely crafted dark orange guilloché enamel, displaying intricate patterns that catch the light beautifully. The lower part of the egg showcases a pale blue chalcedony. Separating the enameled top from the chalcedony bottom is a delicately engraved ring made of rose gold, adding a refined contrast to the piece. The suspension loop and bail are also crafted from rose gold, enhancing the pendant's overall elegance and timeless appeal. The gold pendant-egg by master Anders Johan Nevalainen was made in St. Petersburg, Russian Empire, between the late 19th century and early 20th century. Anders Juhaninpoika Nevalainen is one of the most famous Finnish jewelers from the late 19th century to the first quarter of the 20th century. He collaborated with the Fabergé company, creating exquisite jewelry pieces that have become renowned worldwide. He was born on January 1, 1858, in Pielisjärvi, in the Grand Duchy of Finland. In 1874, he moved to St. Petersburg to begin his career. By 1875, he was working as a jeweler's apprentice, and in 1885, he attained the status of master jeweler. Initially, he worked in the renowned workshop of August Holmström, one of Fabergé's principal workmasters. Later, Nevalainen became an independent craftsman, creating exceptional pieces exclusively for the Fabergé firm, contributing significantly to its legacy of luxury and artistry. The following hallmarks are visible on the small ring and the pendant ring: the initials of the master "A.N." for Anders Nevalainen, the gold assay value "56" indicating a hallmark for gold items, and the Cyrillic initials "AP" for the assay master of the St. Petersburg Assay Office, Alexander Vasilyevich Romanov.
