The
phenomenon of creation of the Faberge-style Easter eggs by jewelers
is connected with the pre-revolutionary Russia traditions. The
first attempts of the creations of the items in Faberge style
were in the 80 the years of the 20-th centuries. Andrey Ananov
is the initiator of the treatment to the art works of the famous
jeweler Ananov. Andrey once presented a medallion - in a form
of an Easter egg - to a representative of the of the "Cartier"
company. The company made a conclusion about its high quality.
The "Cartier" company then signed a contract with Mr.
Ananov and worked out the special brand - "Faberge from Ananov".
Filigree eggs with surprise - icons, open doors, broken in two
parts and etc. - from Ramenskoye masters are marked out among
modern Easter eggs. Their peculiarity is their Faberge style and
the use of miniature pendants-eggs by St. Petersburg masters with
Christian symbols on them. Pendants-eggs are made out of silver
with the 18-carat gilding. Color enamels, Svarovski crystals,
natural stones (garnet, malachite, obsidian, lapis lazuli) are
used to decorate these works of art.
