AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Superb decorative egg signed Joan Rivers, from the prestigious Imperial Eggs collection, in a limited edition.

This refined model stands out for its double function: a decorative art object and a pot-pourri holder thanks to its delicately-set pierced lid.

According to the designer, the molds were destroyed after production to guarantee the rarity of the pieces — which today enhances the collector interest in this series.

Elegant imperial-style egg resting on three finely sculpted feet in the shape of winged cherubs.

The body features a rich deep red enamel finish with textured under-glaze decor, highlighted by gold motifs.
The pierced lid is adorned with multiple faceted rhinestones imitating diamonds, gently releasing fragrances when used as pot-pourri.

The top is set with a domed red cabochon, surmounted by a central faceted crystal.

The interior is a glossy red lacquer.

A true decorative object in the spirit of Russian imperial eggs.

Usable as pot-pourri thanks to the pierced lid

Condition

Very good overall condition.

Possible micro signs of use visible upon close inspection.
No missing rhinestones observed.
Lid fits correctly.

Please examine the photos carefully.

Elegant decorative object, refined and timeless.

Careful shipping, professional packaging and tracked delivery.

Happy bidding on Catawiki!!!
