FABERGÉ – The tsar’s jeweller and the connections to the Danish royal family | Exhibition

At the royal castle Koldinghus, on Thursday, 12 May,  Denmark opens a special exhibition.

This is the first time, the Fabergé objects belonging to the Danish royal family have been on display side by side in a single exhibition.

World-renowned jeweller’s art from the Danish royal family’s private homes on display at the royal castle Koldinghus.

 'FABERGÉ - Juwelier der Zaren und die Verbindungen zur dänischen Königsfamilie

‚FABERGÉ – Juwelier der Zaren und die Verbindungen zur dänischen Königsfamilie
’FABERGÉ – The tsar’s jeweller and the connections to the Danish royal family
Carl Fabergé (1846-1920) was court jeweller to the Russian tsar and best known for the extravagant, diamond-encrusted Easter eggs he created for the tsar and his family from 1885 until the Russian revolution in 1917.
Fabergé’s first imperial egg was inspired by an older gold egg, a gift from the Russian tsar to his Danish-born wife, Empress Dagmar.

The exhibition at Koldinghus presents 100 items borrowed from members of the Danish royal family, who have inherited numerous Fabergé objects via their family ties to the Russian tsar. The exhibits include bejewelled eggs, letter openers and large champagne coolers but none of the imperial eggs. The exhibits have only rarely been put on public display, because they are in private ownership and are still used by the members of the Danish royal family.

One section of the exhibition are focuses on Fabergé’s jeweller’s art, featuring utilitarian objects and works of art, including little boxes, cigarette cases and pen trays decorated with precious and semi-precious gemstones and gold-mounted rubies and diamonds.

The second section presents large official works by Fabergé presented to members of the Danish royal family in connection with coronations, anniversaries or royal weddings. This includes a large gilt champagne cooler, a gold wedding anniversary for King Christian IX and Queen Louise in 1892, that was also in use a hundred years later at the silver wedding anniversary of Denmark’s current royal couple.

The third section focuses on close relations and private gifts, such as jewellery and picture frames. With a family photo, the frames made a highly personal gift for storing shared memories.

An introductory film and an animated genealogical table tells the story of the close personal ties between the two families, and visitors can mount their own portrait or a family photo in a Fabergé frame.

‚The exhibition is opened on Thursday, 12 May at 15:00 by H.R.H. Princess Benedikte with the attendance of H.H. Duchess Donata of Mecklenburg von Solodkoff and Mr. Alexander von Solodkoff, Count Ingolf and Countess Sussie and H.H. Princess Elisabeth.

The exhibits are kindly lent to the exhibition by H.M. Queen Margrethe II, H.R.H. Prince Henrik, H.R.H. Princess Benedikte,  H.M. Queen Anne-Marie, H.H. Princess Elisabeth, Count Ingolf and Countess Sussie of Rosenborg, Det Kongelige Løsørefideikommis, Den Kongelige Livgardes Officerskorps Fond, The Royal Danish Collection Amalienborg and Cartier Collection in Paris.

A catalogue with dual Danish and English text will be published in connection with the exhibition.

from 13 May – 25 September 2016

The Danish Royal Jewel Expert Bjarne Steen Jensen will held an lecture on 17th May!

 

‚FABERGÉ – Juwelier der Zaren und die Verbindungen zur dänischen Königsfamilie

Am Donnerstag, den 12. Mai 2016 öffnet in Dänemark’s Königsburg Koldinghus eine Fabergé Sonderausstellung. Die Fabergé-Objekte der dänische Königsfamilie sind zum ersten Mal in einer Einzelaustellung zu sehen.

Carl Fabergé (1846-1920) war Hofjuwelier der russischen Zaren und am besten bekannt für die extravaganten, mit Diamanten besetzte Ostereier die er für den Zaren und seine Familie von 1885 bis zu der russischen Revolution im Jahre 1917 geschaffen hat.
Fabergés erste kaiserliches Ei wurde von einem älteren Gold-Ei inspiriert, ein Geschenk des russischen Zaren an seine in Dänemark geborene Frau, Kaiserin Dagmar.

Die Ausstellung im Koldinghus präsentiert 100 Objekte, alle von Mitgliedern der dänischen Königsfamilie ausgeliehen, die, die zahlreichen Fabergé-Objekte über ihre Familienbande zum russischen Zaren geerbt haben.
Zu den Exponaten gehören mit Juwelen besetzte Eier, Brieföffner und großen Champagnerkühler, aber keines der Kaiserlichen Eier.
Weil sich die Exponate hauptsächlich im Privatbesitz befinden, werden sie immer noch von den Mitgliedern der dänischen Königsfamilie verwendet und deshalb selten verliehen und ausgestellt.

Aus der Fabergé Werkstatt, kamen vielerlei Arten von Objekte, neben den berühmten Ostereier.

Fabergés Zeitgeschmack und seinem Sinn fürs Detail, seinen Ideenreichtum und seine genialen Kreativität, war er in der Lage, königliche und kaiserliche Wohnzimmer in prächtige Schatztruhen zu verwandeln.
Feuerzeuge der Natur nachempfunden, Ornamente wie  winzige Hirschhufe und Bänder aus Diamanten und Rubinen, während Bilderrahmen für Familienfotos mit Silber und Gold mit Laub und bunten Emailwerk geschmückt waren.
Die Ausstellung gliedert sich in drei Abschnitte. Man konzentriert sich auf Fabergé Juwelierkunst, aus Gebrauchsgegenstände und Kunstwerke, darunter kleine Schachteln, Zigarettenetuis und Federschalen verziert mit Edelsteinen und Halbedelsteinen und Gold gefassten Rubinen und Diamanten.

Der zweite Teil stellt große offizielle Werke von Fabergé an die Mitglieder der dänischen Königsfamilie – im Zusammenhang präsentiert mit Krönungen, Jubiläen oder königliche Hochzeiten. Dazu gehören ein großer vergoldeter Champagner-Kühler, eine  Geschenk zum Goldenen Hochzeitstag von König Christian IX und Königin Luise im Jahre 1892, der auch hundert Jahre später bei der Silberhochzeit von Dänemarks aktuellen Königspaar in Gebrauch war.

Der dritte Abschnitt konzentriert sich auf enge Beziehungen und private Geschenke, wie Schmuck und Bilderrahmen.
Ein Einführungsfilm und eine animierte Ahnentafel erzählt die Geschichte der engen persönlichen Beziehungen zwischen den beiden Familien, und die Besucher können ihre eigenen Porträt oder eine Familie Foto in einem Fabergé Rahmen montieren.

Die Ausstellung wird am Donnerstag  den 12. Mai 2016 um 15:00 Uhr von H.R.H. Prinzessin Benedikte eröffnet, in  Anwesenheit von H. H. Herzogin Donata von Mecklenburg von Solodkoff und Herr Alexander von Solodkoff, Graf Ingolf und Gräfin Sussie und H.H. Prinzessin Elisabeth.

Die Exponate  zur Ausstellung wurden von Königin Margrethe II, H.R.H. Prinz Henrik, H.R.H. Prinzessin Benedikte, H. M. Queen Anne-Marie, H.H. Prinzessin Elisabeth Graf Ingolf und Gräfin Sussie von Rosenborg, Det Kongelige Løsørefideikommis, Den Kongelige Livgardes Officerskorps Fond, The Royal Danish Sammlung Amalien und Cartier-Sammlung in Paris, ausgeliehen.

Ein Katalog mit dänischen und englischen Text wird in Zusammenhang mit der Ausstellung veröffentlicht. Dauer der Ausstellung 13. Mai – 25. September 2016  www.koldinghus.dk/

Princess Louise’s bequests to favourite Royal pairs

The DUCHESS often wears diamond stars in her hair as on this occasion. Her new jewels include diamond daisies which she will probably wear the same way.

The Duchess of Kent inherits the major part of the late Princess Louise’s glorious jewels, which were the envy of every woman in England during the seventies.

The Duke of Kent is known to be the chief beneficiary under the will. The extent of the Kents‘ legacy is unknown, for Royal wills are secret, and not filed at Somerset House.

The Duke of Kent, one of the greatest favorites within the Royal Family, is doted on by his elder relatives. He was the favorite nephew of the late Princess Victoria, who bequeathed to him the lovely home, Coppins.

Now he inherits much of the fortune of his great-aunt, the late Princess Louise, whom he frequently visited, sitting for hours at her bedside in Kensington Palace.

The Duchess was also a favorite for her own charm, because she was the wife of the Princess‘ favorite, and partly because her family went through vicissitudes of which Princess Louise had seen so much.

Princess Louise Duchess of Argyll
Princess Louise Duchess of Argyll

Princess Louise lived so frugally at Kensington Palace during her last years that she must have used only a fraction of the £6000 she received annually through the Civil list pension.

Wealthy Princess
She inherited the bulk of lier has band’s £619,000 and also inherited largely from her mother, Queen Victoria. She was therefore one of the wealthiest of the Royal Family.

The Duchess‘ jewel legacy is a magnificent one. When princess Louise married the ninth Duke of Argyle (sic), Marquess of Lorne in 1871 at the end of the Franco-Prussian war, there followed one of the most brilliant periods.

She was the centre of a great social season, and her jewels were the cynosure of all eyes. These have not been worn for years and are mostly in the antique settings, which are again becoming first favorites in modern taste.

The Princess‘ jewel box contains a particularly fine collection of diamonds, pearls and opals. One beautiful necklace is of five large opals set around with brilliants, connected by a diamond chain.

The Duchess of Kent wearing the type of pearl necklace and earrings she is rarely seen without. She now inherits some superb jewels from the late Princess Louise.

A large drop-brooch has two fine opals set in brilliants, and a pair of opal and diamond earrings matches this.

Particularly lovely are the diamond daisies mounted as hairpins, which are understood to be included in the Duchess‘ Inheritance. She will probably wear these In her hair as diamond clips, for she is fond of wearing stars in her hair.

Other very valuable pieces in the collection include a tiara formed of a band of emeralds and diamonds, surmounted by a scrollwork in emeralds and diamonds, a gift from the former Duchess of Argyle.

There ls also a pendant of line sapphires, mounted with brilliants and pearls and finished with a pearl drop. The centre of this pendant unhooks to form a bracelet.

From one necklace of pearls and diamonds is suspended an oval locket, the centre of which is a large Oriental pearl surrounded by closely-set, large diamonds of great brilliancy.

This was a gift from the Clan Campbell and the Jewelled locket is suspended by an emerald sprig of bog myrtle, the Campbell badge, this called „the Lorne jewel“ .

Princess Louise, fourth daughter of Queen Victoria. She had received the London-made jewels on 23 August 1871 as a gift from the Clan Campbell Marquis of Lorne, later the 9th Duke of Argyll. The necklace is made of 13 rectangles, set with a total of 190 diamonds, connected by thirteen pearls encircled with diamonds. The Locket consists of a large oriental pearl surrounded by a row of ten smaller diamonds which alternate with tem lozenge-shaped diamonds. The final part of the Jewel, the pear-shaped Pendant, is attached to the locket by a double sprig of bog myrtle, the Campbell plant badge, formed of emeralds. On the pendent is a representation of the Galley of Lorne in relief (symbolizing descent from the royal house of the Norse); this is composed of sapphires on a paving of diamonds.
Princess Louise, fourth daughter of Queen Victoria. She had received the London-made jewels on 23 August 1871 as a gift from the Clan Campbell Marquis of Lorne, later the 9th Duke of Argyll as wedding gift. 

Other lovely pieces include a two string pearl necklace valued at about £1000, a chased necklace with links of diamonds joined with pearls, and a beautiful bracelet in the shape of a coronet, centre of which is a large diamond surrounded by eight smaller diamonds. This is set in silver instead of gold, and would thus be mast fashionable to-day.

Princess Louise also had some beautiful silver and gold services, including a richly chased silver-gilt dessert set, a chased silver-gilt tea and coffee service, and a complete silver-gilt toilet set.

Diamonds for her birthday
The Duke of Kent’s gift to the Duchess of Kent on her 33rd birthday was a flat bracelet of flexible platinum links studded with large diamonds.
From the Australian Women’s Weekly 6 Jan 1940, p2
