Fifth Avenue in New York houses many treats, but one of its more sumptuous offerings is a gem of a museum - the Forbes Faberge collection. Containing more than 400 objets d"art, this tiny museum is a treasure trove of artistic and historical masterpieces. One hundred and twenty pieces from the Forbes Faberg collection are pictured here, each accompanied by a detailed essay on its significance and history and the artisans who created it. Printed on elegant paper and accompanied by 26 tip-ins, this volume also features genealogies of the European royal families who commissioned most of these pieces.
