Est. $28,000-$30,000 Faberge 67.19ct Russian Citrine Spaniel W/Genuine Mine-Cut Diamond Eyes in Faberge Leather Casket (One of a Kind) - This stunning piece is made of a 67.19ct Russian Citrine, and has genuine Mine-Cut diamond eyes. This is among one of the rarest Faberge pieces we have ever seen. The piece has amazing attention to detail. This is thought to be a one of a kind piece, as there were not many animal figurines that were made of a solid gemstone. Most figurines were made of nephrite, obsidian, jade and other forms of hard stones. This piece has very fine attention to detail, and each portion of the piece is embelished with life like incised details. The natural inclusion in the gemstone were used to delicately, and intricately accent this amazing piece. You can see almost every hair of the spaniel in clear, and distinct detail, this truly is an amazing piece. The dog is in a "sitting position" and has a pondering gaze that reflects innocence, and loyalty. Measures: 2" x 1.5". This piece does come in a leather casket that was custom made for this piece by Faberge. The piece has no markings as there is no precious metals used in this specimen. Measures: 30mm in height
