Inspired by the legendary craftsmanship of the House of Fabergé, this refined floral sculpture echoes the opulence and artistry that defined the work of Peter Carl Fabergé (1846–1920).

At its foundation lies a striking rectangular base made from deep blue lapis lazuli, lending both stability and a vivid pop of colour. Resting above is a vermeil base fashioned in a graceful lancet-leaf shape, which supports an elegantly formed ovoid vase. This vase is coated in an iridescent enamel finish, radiating a soft, pearly sheen. A maroon cabochon stone is embedded at its centre. Around the neck of the vase, a finely set diamond band adds a brilliant accent, enhancing the overall sense of luxury.

At the heart of this ornamental creation is a finely sculpted blossom fashioned from rose quartz. Its gentle blush tone is beautifully accented by a sparkling stigma set with dazzling diamonds. The flower, portrayed in full bloom, is affixed to a graceful stem made of silver-gilt further embellished with two meticulously carved nephrite leaves, adding depth and realism.

Spurious marks are stamped on the vermeil stem.

The unusual pairing of a lapis lazuli plinth with such a refined enamel and gemstone arrangement makes this floral objet d’art an exceptional and collectible piece.
