EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases an exquisite obsidian model of a seal, crafted around 1900 by the renowned firm of Fabergé. Measuring 12.7 cm in length, this remarkable piece is housed in a luxurious silk and velvet-lined wooden case, adding to its allure. The image captures the seal lying gracefully on its front, with two objects reflecting off its shiny surface. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the intricate details of this artful sculpture, from the texture of the obsidian to the careful craftsmanship that brings it to life. Set against a black background, the seal stands out as a symbol of elegance and sophistication. Its posture exudes aversion as it looks away from us, creating an air of mystery and intrigue. The yellowstone-colored obsidian adds depth and character to this representation of nature's beauty. Inside the open case lies a world where art meets functionality - a testament to Fabergé's mastery in applied artistry. This stunning creation is not only visually striking but also serves as a container for treasured possessions. As we admire this masterpiece captured by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded of Carl Fabergé's legacy as one of Russia's most celebrated designers. This photograph transports us back in time to early 20th century Russia when luxury met innovation at House of Fabergé – an era where every detail mattered and artistic excellence reigned supreme.
