egg showing harsh winter
The spokesman said that the largest-ever Moscow Kremlin Egg has been included in the exhibition. There will be a music box that plays the favorite music of Tsar Nicholas II. If you look at the eggs, then the name of this green colored egg is Diamond Trellis Egg. It was given to his wife Empress Maria Fedorovna by Emperor Alexander III for Easter in 1892. The ivory automaton used in this egg is a surprise. These eggs further strengthen our knowledge about ancient times. Similarly, the texture of the Winter Egg is inspired by the harsh winters of Russia. Its rock crystal body is meticulously carved and decorated with a diamond-mounted platinum frost pattern.
