About the Item

A Fabergé workmaster August Holmström silver egg pendant, guilloche blue enameled and featuring an embossed image of one large star and five tiny stars with natural diamonds. The image on the pendant is on both sides. It was made in St. Petersburg, Russian Empire, in the late 19th century/early 20th century. August Holmström was Chief Jeweller at Fabergé for a remarkable forty-six years. Throughout his illustrious career, most Fabergé productions took place in his workshop. Holmström was born in Helsinki and originally trained under his bricklayer father. At the age of sixteen, however, he left his homeland for St Petersburg and became an apprentice to the jeweler Herold. Whilst in Herold’s workshop. Holmström met Johann Fredrik Hammarström, another Finnish trainee-jeweller. Though Hammarström initially achieved greater success, establishing his own workshop, Holmström soon surpassed him. In 1857, Holmström purchased Hammarström’s workshop and rose to the esteemed position of Chief Jeweller for Fabergé. What sets August Holmström apart from other workmasters is his work's sheer quantity and variety. Additionally, he has a reputation for creating extraordinary custom designs. Hallmarks were struck on the loop with the work master’s initials "AH" and illegible hallmarks, presumably the St. Petersburg Assay Office marks, a woman's head in a kokoshnik, and the imperial silver standard 88. Length: 22.3 mm Width: 14.7 mm The weight: 4.4 grams The egg pendant is in good vintage condition. Amazing, unique, and historically significant piece! 1.
