A comparable brooch was sold Christie’s, Geneva, 19 November 1991, lot 346. An original Fabergé design for this brooch was sold Christie’s, London, 5 April 1960, lot 173, see A. von Solodkoff, et al., Masterpieces from the House of Fabergé, New York, 1984, p. 21.

As a symbol of spring's arrival, the lily-of-the-valley was a favourite flower of the Empresses. A Fabergé enamelled brooch, set with a similar diamond sprig of the flower, was given by Empress Alexandra Feodorovna to Marion Louisa 'Pollie' Delmé-Radcliffe, Baroness Ungern-Sternberg in June 1898 (Christie's, London, 29 November 2010, lot 220)
