拍品專文

This rare and unusual bonbonnière is inspired by the Japanese takamakie technique of creating a high relief in gold against a lacquer ground. However, in this case the finely chased gold dragonfly is actually applied on a lacquered box produced by the Lukutin Factory, rather than created by repeatedly applying layers of gold leaf as practiced by the takamakie craftsmen.

Fabergé's designers often drew inspiration from Japanese art. Carl Fabergé himself was an avid collector and kept over 500 netsuke in his flat on Bol’shaya Morskaya street.
