Being a goldsmith i should know this, but in truth i don't. Recently i p/x'd this item from a customer who wanted something else made. Since then its been sat in a box and only now am i getting round to pricing it up for resale. The trouble is im not sure if its genuine (i havn't lost out if its not). The chain is not the original chain, of that im sure, although a platinum spiga chain is not a bad thing to have it on. The egg itself seems to be identical to what Faberge produced under model number F2177BL http://www.griffinjewellers.co.uk/F2178BL.htm
(same weight, carat content of diamonds and enamel quality) but as there are no hallmarks or signatures its beaten me with regard to its authenticity. Anyone here got any idea or experience with Faberges egg pendants?
