Peter Carl Faberg%C3%A9

Peter Carl Faberg, also known as Karl Gustavovich Faberg , was a Russian jeweller, best known for the famous Faberg eggs, made in the style of genuine Easter eggs, but using precious metals and gemstones rather than more mundane materials.

He was born in Saint Petersburg, Russia, to the Baltic German jeweller Gustav Faberg and his Danish wife Charlotte Jungstedt. Gustav Fabergs paternal ancestors were Huguenots, originally from La Bouteille, Picardy, who fled from France after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes, first to Germany near Berlin, then in 1800 to the Pernau Baltic province of Livonia, then part of Russia.
