It is meticulously carved from a single piece of striking green nephrite from Siberia, one of Fabergé’s signature materials. The dampener is further decorated with rose and green gold garlands, ornate bows, laurel leaves, twinkling diamonds and lively rubies – working together to create an eye-catching object d’art.
