Anders Juhaninpoika Nevalainen (1858 in Pielisjärvi, Finland – 1933, in Terijoki) was a Russian gold- and silversmith, Fabergé workmaster of Finnish origin.Biography[edit]

Anders Nevalainen was an apprentice in Finland and in St. Petersburg in 1874, a goldworker in 1875 (and registered as an employee of Fabergé), and a master goldsmith in 1885.

As master first working in the jewelry atelier of August Holmström, he soon became head of workshop under exclusive contract with Fabergé. His workshop made silver-mounted frames in birchwood, palisander or lacquer, silver- and gold cigarette-cases, enameled silver-gilt cases with leather sleeves, several small silver-gilt objects. His initials A.N, mostly used with K.Fabergé mark without the double-headed eagle Imperial Warrant.

Anders Nevalainen later opened his own shop while maintaining his contract with Fabergé. He specialized in embroidered cigarette cases, sliver frames, ceramics and woodwork.

The Nevalainen family returned to Finland after the Russian Revolution in 1917. Anders Nevalainen died in Terijoki in 1933.
