A brief history of Faberge
Any fan of Faberge will already be aware of its fascinating history. The world’s most iconic artist jeweller has become renowned for its bespoke commissions, its extraordinary timepieces and its iconic Imperial Egg designs. The company was founded and began its success story when Peter Carl Fabergé became the official goldsmith to the Russian Imperial Court, creating captivating jewels and its highly-collectable Imperial Eggs for an elite clientele. The company’s unique use of precious gemstones is what has gained the manufacturer so much recognition for its colourful designs. In 1917, the house of Faberge came to an end along with the Romanov dynasty as a result of the Russian Revolution. After the death of Peter Carl Fabergé, the family lost its rights to the Faberge name, until it underwent new ownership in 2007, opening a new chapter to the intriguing story of Faberge.
Today, Faberge still draws upon its storied past to create the modern designs that now feature in its new collections – each one paying homage to some of the company’s most popular and coveted designs whilst still remaining unique and entirely individual. The manufacturer continues to explore art through colourful gemstones, creating an entire universe of elaborately decorated pieces of fine jewellery that are loved the world over for their opulence and exclusivity.
Tracing the legacy of its past, Faberge offers a broad range of designs across several collections. Although the Imperial Eggs played a huge part in the company’s success, they represent only a small fraction of Faberge’s artistic creations. It became a pioneer in enamelling techniques, with Faberge inventing more than 145 different enamel shades at the height of his career.
The Colours of Love collection by Faberge
The Colours Of Love jewellery collection is based on Peter Carl Fabergé’s trademark techniques. These techniques include the company’s signature fluting where distinct parallel grooves are set into the surface of the company’s 18ct gold designs. This unique style was inspired by the skills of ancient Roman gold and silversmiths. When Peter Carl Faberge revived this technique, he incorporated it into his Imperial Egg designs but more recently the company has showcased the technique in the rings of the Colours Of Love jewellery collection.
Each ring from the Colours Of Love jewellery collection by Faberge is cast in a 3D mould. When the ring has been set, each individual groove must be hand polished by Faberge’s highly skilled team of craftsmen, creating a unique and exquisite finish to each design. Three different fluted band designs make up the Colours Of Love collection – each design, of course, celebrating the company’s experience in developing vibrant, colourful gemstone jewellery designs. The three fluted designs are perfect for suiting every style and comprise a plain fluted option, a gemstone-set fluted option and a diamond-fluted option. Many of the designs incorporate rubies, emeralds and sapphires – gemstones that are symbolic of love and romance, and have been since ancient times. Since no two gemstones are the same, each Colours Of love ring from Faberge is designed to feel exclusive and extra special.
