ESTIMATE PRICE: $15000 - $16000.
It is a great INVESTMENT.
Warranty: The gold and diamonds are checked - all natural. This item is ORIGINAL for 100%.
History of sale: We found the best sample. In 1911, imperial presentation snuffbox was decorated with a portrait of Nicholas II, the wizard Vasiliy Zuev - see the image. In 1913 on behalf of the emperor it was presented as a gift Turhan Pasha, Turkish Ambassador in St. Petersburg.
Very interesting fact: This snuff box was purchased from Faberge in 1909 for 2500 rubles (for comparison: the price of a 7 - rooms apartment on the prestigious Big Sea Street in St. Petersburg at that time had a price about 2000 rubles - now the price for apartment in that area is $2.000.000 - $3.000.000 !!).
This box sold on Christie's in London in November 2010 for $1.463.985 !!!!. Please compare our item and the item on the box - and our price with price of that box.
Also, only the frame for brooch with diamonds made by Faberge recently sold for $15000 - please see the screenshot.
Recently we found one more version how it may have been used. The miniature may have been used as AWARD. Look at the portrat of Kutuzov - he was wearing miniature of Peter 1st as award (the same style and the same size). Please note: last image is for sample only.

He's the founder of the famous jewelry legacy House of Faberge.The House of Faberge is a jewellery firm founded in 1842 in St. Petersburg, Imperial Russia, by Gustav Faberge, using the accented name Faberge.
