Internet and Museum: Fabergé Museum presents an online project marking the anniversary of the jewellery firm
The Fabergé Museum in St. Petersburg has created a special series of short videos for the VK Clips platform. The cycle of educational videos is available online in the social network by the hash tag #Фаберже180, as well as in the halls of the museum – one must simply scan special QR-codes to access them.
A series of clips, marking the 180th anniversary of Carl Fabergé’s jewellery firm, tells about the history of the company and its most interesting creations. Specialists of the museum answer questions about the author of the famous Easter gifts: why did Fabergé eggs became known all over the world and how much they cost now, how many eggs were produced by the jewellery firm for the imperial family, what other products the company released. The staff showed the most unique objects, issued by the Fabergé brand. One also has an opportunity to learn fascinating details from Carl Fabergé’s biography.
The Fabergé Museum is the first private museum in Russia containing a collection of federal significance. The building of the Naryshkin-Shuvalov Palace stores over 4000 exhibits: accessories, silverware, interior items.
The whole series of anniversary videos is available on the project’s website and by the hash tag #Фаберже180.
