Meant to be collected on a chain bracelet (which is sold separately), Fabergé’s latest egg-shaped offerings are a playful take on the classic.

Fabergé doesn’t simply create fine jewelry — the iconic brand handcrafts heirlooms. Centuries after Russian tsars traded Fabergé eggs, the design house presents a series of egg-shaped bracelet charms likewise destined to be passed down through generations. Launched on October 1, Fabergé Charms borrows motifs from the company’s Treillage, Spiral, Cadeau, and Emotion collections for the intricate diamond- and gemstone-bedecked pieces. For the clientele who adores customization, there’s also a diamond-set gold egg that can be engraved with a personal message or initials.
