The glow of countless precious stones has been the "calling card" of the Russian Imperial Court for centuries. All memoirists, especially foreigners, wrote with one voice about the jewelry splendor that was an integral part of ceremonies. Dazzling sparkle of diamonds, matte shimmer of gold and noble silver, pearl scatterings, smaragdas and jachonts - all this luxury awaits the reader on the pages of the book. You will read about jewelry "brands" and jewelers-suppliers of the imperial court, jewelry awards and gifts, and even about thefts in imperial residences. Real documents with an inventory of crown diamonds, jewelry albums of Maria Feodorovna and Nicholas II with sketches of jewelry and much more await you. The book is based on archival documents, and therefore the authors hope that readers will be able to discover new pages related to the wonderful world of Russian jewelry art.
