The Fabergé №1 Enamel Egg Pendant Locket
A modern white-enamel tribute to the first Imperial Egg, scaled as a wearable surprise.
Story & heritage
Fabergé traces its egg mythology to 1885, when the first Imperial Egg established the house’s language of hidden interiors and jewelled surprise. This №1 pendant translates that origin story into a contemporary locket: the white enamel shell opens to a miniature egg seated inside a nest structure.
The current house presents the piece as a tribute to Fabergé’s origins rather than a literal museum copy, keeping the egg silhouette, the reveal, and the gold-and-diamond finish as the recognisable codes.
Materials & craft
Fabergé describes the pendant as 18k yellow gold with white vitreous enamel, round white diamonds, and a diamond-cut chain. The enamel exterior is built through multiple hand-applied layers to create a soft matt finish.
How to choose & style
Wear it as the quiet centre of a fine-chain stack, or let the white enamel sit alone against black knitwear or silk. Its impact is in the reveal, so it works best when the rest of the jewellery stays restrained.
