The goldsmith and jeweller Peter Carl Fabergé is known for his artistic jewellery, especially the Fabergé eggs. However, he also produced other works and exerted great influence on subsequent generations of jewellers.
The Fabergé walking sticks, which could be made of hard stones, enamel, and precious stones, are exceptional and revive 18th century craftsmanship techniques that Carl Fabergé discovered during his Grand Tour of Europe. Walking sticks were popular as objects of power and prestige long before Fabergé. Still, in the first half of the 20th century, Fabergé developed detailed and magnificently crafted walking sticks together with workshop manager Henrik Wigström. For example, enamel was applied to the metal areas, here in a red guilloché ground under gilded decorative elements.
