Design & Special Features

Surprise Detail:

Unlike the Portrait Egg which holds photos, this version often includes a magnifying optical cabochon housed under the imperial crown finial. Looking through it reveals a secret message in Russian Cyrillic: “Пусть будет благословлен этот дом и все в нем живущие,” which translates to "Bless this home and all the occupants within".

Aesthetics:

The egg features a coral or pink enamel shell adorned with raised green foliage and "flowers" made of simulated pearls and Swarovski crystals.

Symbolism:

In the original Fabergé context, the lilies of the valley represented the Empress's favorite flowers and symbolized purity and happiness
