In 1885, the Russian Tsar Alexander III commissioned an Easter gift for his wife.
It was a rather unusual gift. He asked one of the finest goldsmiths in the country to create a jeweled egg.
However, it wasn’t just to be an expensive bauble. Inside the egg was to be another exquisite surprise.
This began a tradition that would last for over 30 years and resulted in some of the finest and most valuable decorative works of art in the world.
Learn about Fabergé Eggs, their creation, and the stories behind them on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
