This clock is a replica of one of the most charming eggs that Tsar Nicholas II gave to his wife Alexandra Feodorovna in 1899. The original was crafted by master craftsman Michael Perkin at the famous goldsmith Carl Fabergé's workshop and is called the “Madonna Lily Clock Egg.” It is now on display in the Armory Chamber of the Moscow Kremlin (see A. Kenneth Snowman: The Art of Carl Fabergé. 1962. No. 332). The replica offered here was made in early 1980 by Meister Juwelier AG in Zurich as a one-off copy and remained there in the private collection (documentation available).
