Faberge created this egg in 1903 for Czar Nicholas to give to his mother. This most important family event for the Empress in 1902 was her visit to Copenhagen for the 50th Anniversary of ascension of her father to the throne of Denmark. This golden jubilee even was commemorated in this egg. The outer surface of the egg is light blue and white enamel with ornaments in gold and hand-set Austrian crystals. The egg is surmounted by a Danish Royal elephant and supported by three Danish Heraldic lions. The suprise is a miniature picture frame.
Height 10" overall.
