Fabergé Egg

The choice of the name “Artgender” derives from the consideration for which the brand that identifies a particular company that operates in the sectors of event planning, publishing and communication has never been used; for us art is a real type of human being, that is, who is deeper. Does not exclude anyone but renames a category, composed of very different people within… elsewhere I think, origin and direction; but, united by a single factor: the artistic one. Anyone can be or feel like an artist as long as he is concerned with producing or simply approaching any form of expression. Our identity is necessary, in things, in people, in words, in ways… that teaching contributes to formation ‘individual evolution.

Fabergé Egg

How was #Easter egg’s tradition born?

Always symbol of life and rebirth, the #eggs were donated and exchanged since the times of the ancient Egyptians, then in the Middle Ages and again in the Sun king’s France who -it seems- had already made them made of #chocolate

But the custom of a precious object within them?
It’s due to the genius of the jeweler at the Tsars of Russia court around the mid-1800s

The goldsmith Peter Carl #Fabergé in fact, making a tribute decorated for the tsarina, thought of filling the inside with another gold egg. This in turn contained a golden hen which – like a matryoshka – still contained a small reproduction of the imperial crown and a ruby pendant that could be worn
