Est. $800,000-$850,000 Karl Faberge Antique Russian 9 Inch 84 Silver & Iridescent Black Obsidian Raven W/Genuine Blue Sapphire Eyes *Museum Quality Piece* - This gorgeous antique piece is made of 84 silver and carved Black Obsidian. The Obsidian has a beautiful black to silver iridescence, and the photos truly do not do this museum quality piece justice. The raven also has genuine Blue Sapphire eyes, and measures a massive 9"L x 5"H. To find a Faberge piece made by this workmaster, and in this large size is very rare. The piece is marked "Faberge" (in Crylic) and bears the workmaster's mark of "A.N.". We have sold a large portion of this collection at our auction house, and we have never seen a piece quite this lovely. If you were to see this piece in a store, it may be priced at over $1 million (if you can ever find one). This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a piece of history made by a master. This piece is very rare, as most of the Faberge pieces found in today's market are examples of his "mini" works. This piece is a statuette, and is not a miniature item, making it highly soughtafter by collectors all over the world.
