Anyone no anything about this egg
The gemstones are not glued in
Hello TeresaD! I've looked into this egg for you and unfortunately I can't find any evidence that would support that it is faberge. My best guess is that this is a "faberge style" egg. I found a few sites selling this exact same egg in a different color scheme. http://www.everlastingtreasures.net/page/ELT/PROD/ET-AS-M0330.html If you wind up the music of your egg and it plays amazing grace. It's most likely one of those.
If you are able to spot a marking on the eggs themselves. I found a site to help confirm that it is faberge. http://www.silvercollection.it/faberge.html
In the worst case scenario they would make excellent gifts. They may not be worth millions, but they're still nice.
I can’t remember the song Was there something like Cat got the mouse or something like the dairy farmer
That’s what it sounds like
And ty for the help
its still very Pretty!
