The year 2014 is a special year for the House of Faberg\u00e9, as it marks the 200th birthday of its founder, Gustav Faberg\u00e9 (1814\u20131894). At the same time, it is also exactly 120 years since he passed away in Dresden, Germany. <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Over the past 70 years, a staggering number of books and articles have been published about the Faberg\u00e9 firm and its most famous member, Carl Faberg\u00e9. Sadly, most authors have contributed to a long list of Western publications that carelessly repeated the same stories over and over\u2014stories that included serious factual errors. The source document for most books and articles was the controversial first biography of Carl Faberg\u00e9, written by H.C. Bainbridge in 1949. Rather than expanding knowledge of Faberg\u00e9, these publications offered little more than colour illustrations depicting the most lavish and famous creations. In the worst cases, authors even attributed obvious forgeries to Faberg\u00e9 and, conversely, considered genuine masterpieces to have been made by other jewellers. In doing so, they harmed the historical and cultural heritage left by the Grand Ma\u00eetre<\/em>. Thus, despite the enormous number of books published on Faberg\u00e9, our main protagonists\u2014founder Gustav Faberg\u00e9 and his son Carl Faberg\u00e9\u2014remained poorly studied in Western literature. <\/p>\n
