This same crown adorned the heads of subsequent emperors up to Nicholas II. Composed of two hemispheres symbolizing the union of East and West, the crown is decorated with 4,936 Indian diamonds totaling 2,858 carats, 75 pearls, and is surmounted by an immense spinel. Despite this, its weight is not very significant, slightly less than two kilograms, and it was completed in a record time of two months.   <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"rec14913974\" class=\"r\" data-animationappear=\"off\" data-record-type=\"223\">\n<div class=\"t195\">\n<div class=\"t-container\">\n<div class=\"t-col t-col_6 t-prefix_2\">\n<div class=\"t195__text t-text t-text_md\">Pauzi\u00e9 was a great master of stone cutting, primarily diamonds, which were always highly valued by his protectors, the crowned heads Anna Ivanovna, Elizabeth Petrovna, and Catherine II. Under their reigns, the court literally sparkled. Pauzi\u00e9 recounts in his memoirs of life in Russia: <em>&#8220;The diamonds of the court ladies majestically adorn the crowd&#8221;<\/em> and <em>&#8220;even in private, they never part with their precious ornaments.&#8221;<\/em> The Swiss Pauzi\u00e9 arrived in Russia when he was still a child. According to legend, he arrived on foot with his father in Saint Petersburg, invited by a relative who was a surgeon at the court of Peter I. His father died shortly thereafter, and the son became the apprentice of Gravero, a French gemstone cutter.    <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"t-col t-col_3 t195__imgsection\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"t195__img t-img loaded\" src=\"http:\/\/fr.rbth.com\/longreads\/joailliers-des-tsars\/images\/tild3966-3536-4065-a562-313463373765__b_rian_00897195hr.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-tu-max-width=\"1200\" data-tu-max-height=\"1200\" data-original=\"images\/tild3966-3536-4065-a562-313463373765__b_rian_00897195hr.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"t195__sectitle t-descr\">Gem bouquet, 1740<\/div>\n<div class=\"t195__secdescr t-descr\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"rec14913975\" class=\"r\" data-animationappear=\"off\" data-record-type=\"106\">\n<div class=\"t004\">\n<div class=\"t-container \">\n<div class=\"t-col t-col_8 t-prefix_2\">\n<div class=\"t-text t-text_md \">At 21, J\u00e9r\u00e9mie Pauzi\u00e9 already owned his own workshop, which served the court and aristocracy for 25 years. Curiously, in addition to snuffboxes, buckles, brooches, decorations, and pins for ladies&#8217; high coiffures, Pauzi\u00e9 also crafted more modest ornaments for less affluent clients. Some of the precious stones in these objects were replaced with cut glass on colored metal foil supports, a mounting so skillfully executed that it created an illusion even within the court.  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"t-text t-text_md \"><\/div>\n<div class=\"t-text t-text_md \"><\/div>\n<div id=\"rec14913975\" class=\"r\" data-animationappear=\"off\" data-record-type=\"106\">\n<div class=\"t-text t-text_md \"><a href=\"http:\/\/fr.rbth.com\/longreads\/joailliers-des-tsars\/\">Continue reading the original article<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Irina Ossipova, for RBTH When one mentions the jewellers of the Russian Imperial Court, the first name that comes to mind is Karl Faberg\u00e9, creator of the famous Easter eggs, precious cigarette cases, and simpler objects that members of the tsar\u2019s family gave one another.
