Please feel free to inquire as to particulars and/or additional snapshots . Peter Carl Fabergé (1846 1920) was the "artist-jeweler" celebrated for opulent Easter Eggs and exquisitely crafted objects of fantasy produced in an astonishingly creative array. Matilda Geddings Gray was fond of travel and first encountered the works of Fabergé at Armand and Victor Hammer's display of Russian art at the Chicago World's Fair in 1933. The pieces made such an impact on her that Miss Gray determined to assemble a collection of Fabergé objects. Her quest led Miss Gray to all the leading dealers in Fabergé objects, a time long before they received the international attention they now command. After Miss Gray's death in 1971, her collection passed to the foundation bearing her name with the intention that the objects be placed on permanent display. Following an extensive tour of American museums, the Collection was placed on loan to the New Orleans Museum of Art in 1988. In exceptionally good condition.
