About the Item

We present a cute pendant in the form of a miniature gilt silver chick that is charming and detailed. The chick is made of 84 silver, and its eyes are encrusted with natural rubies. It is truly an enchanting piece of jewelry. The distinct marks on the pendant's hanging ring are noteworthy: the Greek letter Alpha - α (St. Petersburg Assay Office), the female profile is turned to the right, and the number 84 (Russian zolotnik system). All these hallmarks indicate that the product was produced after the First Russian Revolution in St. Petersburg from 1908 to 1927. Since 1927, the hallmarks have changed. Miniature pendants in the form of little chickens became a tribute to the fashion that arose in the Faberge era and has survived to this day. This charming pendant is in lovely condition. It weighs 4.7 grams and measures approximately 19.5 x 11 mm. Charming, unique item! 1. Dear clients, We appreciate your attention and interest in our store and respect all your price suggestions.

Fabergé Antique Imperial Guilloche Gold Egg Pendant, by Anders Johan Nevalainen
By Fabergé
Located in Chesterland, OH
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.
