In 1872, Peter Carl Fabergé took over his father's small jewelry atelier and transformed it into the world's most important decorative arts enterprise. The firm developed a devoted clientele, including the Romanov Imperial family. The Russian Revolution of 1917 brought an end to the Romanov dynasty as well as the exile of Peter Carl Fabergé to Switzerland. In the wake of the Revolution, many Fabergé treasures were lost or destroyed. Items of silver, including many of the court and presentation pieces created for the Czar, were melted down, making a complete flatware set from this period all the rarer.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Circa 1900 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Hallmarks for Fabergé, St. Petersburg 1896-1908\u003cbr\u003e Pieces also bear 84 standard mark and the Imperial Warrant \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Chest: 10\" high x 22 1\/2\" wide x 12\" deep \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This 77-piece set includes:\u003cbr\u003e 1 fish slice\u003cbr\u003e 1 serving fork\u003cbr\u003e 2 large serving spoons\u003cbr\u003e 1 pair of tongs\u003cbr\u003e 12 dinner knives\u003cbr\u003e 12 fish knives\u003cbr\u003e 12 dinner forks\u003cbr\u003e 12 dinner spoons\u003cbr\u003e 12 dessert spoons\u003cbr\u003e 12 salt spoons","brand":"MSR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50274937078050,"sku":"31-8241","price":198500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0961\/6710\/0706\/files\/31-8241_1_60957ff7-d310-4578-b7b8-bfbcf791b14b.png?v=1756229280","url":"https:\/\/banksyarts.com\/products\/faberge-silver-flatware-service","provider":"The Louvre of America","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
