Fabergé in London: Romance to Revolution - one of London’s current hottest tickets - explores master goldsmith, Carl Fabergé – the man behind the internationally recognised firm symbolising Russian craftsmanship, luxury and elegance – and the Anglo-Russian relationship which saw the opening of a London branch in 1903. It includes not only some of Fabergé’s famous Easter Eggs, but also other luxury objects such as a diamond encrused cigarette case owned by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
