A Legacy of Splendor: Heritage's May 13 Imperial Fabergé & Russian Works of Art Auction Unveils Historic Treasures
From the Fabergé Heritage Collection to Romanov relics and rare porcelain, a landmark sale offers museum-quality masterpieces
On May 13, Heritage Auctions is proud to present its third Imperial Fabergé & Russian Works of Art Signature® Auction
, a stunning showcase illuminating Russia's Imperial and artistic legacy. Anchored by the exceptional Fabergé Heritage Collection and enriched by Imperial artifacts linked to the Romanovs and their circle, a historic Fabergé punch set by Feodor Rückert, exceptional clocks and watches and museum-quality porcelain, this auction is comprehensive yet select. Drawn from prestigious private collections in the U.S., the sale features almost 100 works by Fabergé alongside masterpieces by Khlebnikov, Ovchinnikov and Bolin, offering collectors a rare chance to acquire works of unparalleled craftsmanship.
"Heritage is thrilled to bring this remarkable selection of Russian masterworks to auction," says Nick Nicholson, Heritage's Director of Russian Works of Art. "The Fabergé Heritage Collection alone, with its breadth and quality, is an exceptional opportunity for collectors in the field, both seasoned and new."
The Fabergé Heritage Collection, comprising 60 works, is the spring auction's cornerstone. Assembled nearly two decades ago as an archival reference for the revived Fabergé firm, with guidance from the Fabergé Heritage Council, this collection spans every object type made by the Fabergé firm before the Revolution: jewels, hardstone carvings, silver, miniature Easter eggs, objets de luxe and objets de vertu. "This is one of the most comprehensive Fabergé collections to be offered in years," says Nicholson. "Many pieces haven't been seen at auction in decades, if ever."
