Resurrection (Fabergé egg)

The Resurrection egg is a jewelled rock crystal Easter egg believed to have been made by Michael Perchin under the supervision of the Russian jeweller Peter Carl Fabergé sometime before 1899.

[1] The Resurrection egg was bought in 1922 by a London art dealer, then sold at Christie's in 1934.

Owned by Lord Grantchester, it was bought from his estate by Manhattan art dealers A La Vieille Russie.

He purchased nine Imperial Easter eggs, as part of the collection, for almost $100 million.

[3] The egg is now housed in Vekselberg's Fabergé Museum in Saint Petersburg, Russia.
