Faberge treasure. Golden dentdilion
Just recently, I read an article about the famous jewelry house of Carl Faberge and in the gallery of his works I saw a "Golden dandelion", just like in my photo.
I remembered it and looked for a photo in my album. It was miraculously preserved. Look how similar they are. Now I will tell you about this jewelry masterpiece created by the master of the highest art Carl Faberge.
None of the modern jewelry masters surpassed his creations. The secret of the work "Dandelion" died, unfortunately, along with the death of the artist-jeweler. Looking at a Faberge dandelion in a rock crystal vase, you get the impression that it has just been cut and put in water.
This is just an illusion, in fact, this dandelion on a golden leg, with petals from Ural jade, and the thinnest silver stamens on the head. Around the stamens, real dandelion fluff is inexplicably fixed. It decorates the down with a scattering of tiny diamonds that shimmer in a certain light, creating the impression of morning dew drops.
This magnificent piece of art is now presented in the collection of Faberge jewelry In the Armory of the Moscow Kremlin.
I'm really impressed with the perfection of this piece. If you don't explain how this beautiful piece was made, I could easily think that is a natural flower. Thanks for sharing and letting us know about this great work by the artist Carl Faberge.
Best wishes and have a wonderful day, Valeri!!
thank you very much for your admiration. I forgot to add that the down on the Faberge flower is more than 100 years old and it is natural from dandelion. There is an expert opinion of art historians about it
Have a wonderful week, @knitrias
