If you are new to the Perchin
story, allow me a moment for this abbreviated version:
The first Fabergé Easter Egg
was made in 1885 by Michel Perchin, (Mikhail Perikhin). In 1886,
at the age of 26, this skilled craftsman, a self-taught goldsmith from a peasant
background in the town of Pctorvskiy Zavod, became chief foreman of the Fabergé
firm. Until his death in 1903, his
initials were put on all surprise eggs of the firm made for Emperors Alexander
III and Nicholas II. The first egg made
by Perchin, (Perikhin), consisted of an ivory shell
with stripes of dark blue enamel; in the shell there was a golden-with-enamel
hen with ruby eyes. Inside the hen, there was a golden crown inlaid with pearl.
And inside the crown there was a golden ring.
It was precisely in 1885 that the tradition of annually giving Fabergé Easter eggs was born. Subsequently, Michel Perchin,
Inc., borrowed from the designs of the original Faberge Eggs to create a unique
line of extremely limited edition writing instruments.
