專家說明

According to Ulla Tillander-Godenhielm, models for tie-pins decorated with the Imperial double-headed eagle, such as the present lot, or with an Imperial crown were produced in small quantities: a maximum of six pins for each model. These Fabergé pins were then presented to people of different ranks during state visits by the Imperial family.
For further information on Imperial presentation tie-pins and a nearly identical tie-pin set with a sapphire, by Alfred Thielemann, see Ulla Tillander-Godenhielm, The Russian Imperial Award System during the Reign of Nicholas II, 1894-1917, Helsinki, 2005, pp. 206-207.

We are grateful to Dr Valentin Skurlov for his assistance with the research of the present lot.
