Erik August Kollin (28 December 1836 – 1901) was a Finnish jeweler who worked for Fabergé in St. Petersburg.
He studied as a journeyman with gold and silversmith Alexander Palmén in Ekenäs in 1858[1] before travelling to St. Petersburg.
Kollin worked for August Holmström and for Carl Fabergé, and was soon put in charge of all Fabergé workshops, a post he held until 1886 when he was replaced by Michael Perkhin.
Specialized in gold and silver articles, most of them in an archaic style of the period.
Objects bearing EK mark only and produced between 1885 and 1899 should be considered as the work of an independent operator, unless cased by Fabergé.
