The patterns are elegant and luxurious, and it can be said that there is something about the Fabergé designs that are distinguishably Russian in feeling. When you touch and hold a piece of Fabergé sterling, you are in contact with something very special, coming down to you, not only from the era of the Czars, but of an ancestry far more ancient: for it is typical of all the imperial courts there have ever been. In 1997, the original stamping dies, that were used to manufacture Fabergé sterling silver flatware at the turn-of-the-century, were mysteriously found in a deserted warehouse in what in now the country of Estonia. The next year, the original dies were brought to Sweden where they have been reconditioned and prepared for production. Fabergé sterling silver flatware is produced in a limited number of pieces each year using the original dies that were first used by Peter Carl Fabergé approximately one hundred years ago. These Fabergé sterling silver flatware patterns are exactly the same as the flatware Carl Fabergé produced for Czar Nicholas II and Czarina Alexandra Fedorovna. For that reason, one can say that this flatware is original Fabergé, not an adaptation or a reproduction. Fabergé sterling silver flatware represents the world's highest standards of quality and design.
