‘When we were first presented with this carved model of a polar bear by Carl Fabergé, we knew we had something unusual on our hands,’ says Margo Oganesian, our Russian Art specialist.
.
The large onyx bear was first purchased from Fabergé’s London shop in 1909 by socialite Virginia Fair Vanderbilt and given to her friend Berthe de Ganay as a souvenir of their joint holiday.
.
‘Fabergé provided luxurious presents to the elite from all over the world,’ our specialist explains. ‘This exquisite model is a wonderful testimony to its role in Edwardian high society.’
