The Imperial Spring Flower Egg. Made in 1895 as a gift from Czar Nicholas to the Empress Marie Feodorovna, this strawberry red enamel guilloché egg is decorated with delicate gold rococo arabesques and stands on a bowenite base banded with crystals that, in turn, rests on rococo arabesques joined to form the base level of the stand.

The egg opens from the top into two halves and reveals the surprise, a stone studded basket filled with white anemones and green leaves both set with emerald green stones. The interior of the egg is textured gold, all metal used is gold plated.
