拍品專文

During the First World War Fabergé received a number of military commissions from the government, including commissions for small gifts presented to soldiers and officers by the emperor. The items produced between 1914-1917 included bowls, cigarette cases, and kitchen utensils embossed with Fabergé’s name and the inscription ‘War 1914’. Due to the limited supply of precious metals during the period, Fabergé created numerous pieces in less valuable, yet more practical, materials such as brass, copper and steel.

For similar examples of Fabergé bowls in silver, copper and brass, see G. von Hapsburg, M. Lopato, Fabergé: Imperial Jeweller, London, 1993, pp. 266-267.
