Lot Essay
The scratched inventory number on this decanter '27057' corresponds to an entry in the 1919 inventory lists of the Fabergé's stock, which was confiscated by the Bolsheviks following the firm's closure. In the 1920s, the Soviet government was urgently seeking funds and sold many of these seized Fabergé pieces to foreign buyers.
We are grateful to Dmitry Krivoshei for his assistance with the research of the present lot.
