Description

In an exceedingly rare document, the famed Faberge egg maker sells three shares of stock in his partnership

Russian jeweller (1846–1920) best known for the famous Faberge eggs made of precious metals and gems. Scarce DS, in Russian, signed “K. Faberge,” one page, 8.5 x 11, November 26, 1916. A receipt concerning stock shares reads, in full (translated): “By producing the shares of ‘limited liability partnership K. Faberge’ and by presenting this receipt, the above named partnership is committed to give Otto Bayer 3 fully paid for shares of the ‘limited liability partnership K. Faberge’ worth five thousand rubles each, numbers five hundred eighty six through five hundred eighty eight (#586-588), totaling fifteen thousand rubles (15000 R).” Signed at the conclusion, “K. Faberge,” and countersigned at the bottom, “E. Faberge,” his son, Eugene Faberge. Central horizontal and vertical fold, uniform toning to page, scattered spotting, and some light creases, otherwise very good condition. The first Faberge we have ever offered, this one signed by two generations of the famed family. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
