Faberge Bookmark Appraisal

Fabergé Red Enamel and Gilded Bookmark or Page Clip

This is a luxury desk accessory presented in its original navy blue velvet presentation box, which features a cream silk lining stamped with the Fabergé name and the Imperial Russian double-headed eagle crest. The item is a gilded metal bookmark or page clip featuring an oval-shaped medallion at its head. The medallion is finished with translucent red guilloché enamel over a patterned ground, surrounded by a delicate gold-toned rope-twist border. At the center of the red enamel is a small, clear gemstone-encrusted silver-toned motif, possibly a stylized crown or heraldic symbol. The metal clip portion exhibits a high-polish gold finish. The craftsmanship reflects the late 20th-century licensed Fabergé style, often produced by workmasters like Victor Mayer. The piece appears to be in excellent condition with no visible chips to the enamel, though minor surface scratches on the clip portion are expected for an item of this age. The overall presentation indicates a high level of detail consistent with modern luxury reproductions of historical Imperial Russian designs.
