Some history on this Faberge Egg :
The original invoice issued by Fabergé in 1901 specifies: "Easter egg, white
enamel. Basket with bouquet of wild flowers, with 4176 rose-cut diamonds
and 10 pearls".
For years it was believed that
the piece had no pearls and that they might have been connected with a
possible surprise. However, in 2019, at the request of a Fabergé
enthusiast, an examination of the object by the Royal Collection Trust
staff proved that the egg originally had the ten pearls (in the center
of some flowers) mentioned in the invoice. There are now four pearls and
six prongs (where there used to be pearls) surviving.
