Another lovely from the Washington estate. This gentleman worked as the assistant to the Russian embassador to the United States. He passed several years ago and then his daughter moved away. Everything was sold. This egg I believe is a one of kind hand painted in gold with a floral design. Beautifully done over an exquisite guilloche and showing very little wear with only one little spot and not very noticeable. I can not find another one. A real beauty!!! There appears to be a stamp of some kind indicating the craftsman who probably worked for Faberge or it could have something to do with the metal. I can not make it out. This is an exquisite example of Russian Faberge?  or Faberge style artwork!!!
