Presenting a stunning pendant designed in the shape of a Russian Imperial gilt silver and enamel egg with a cartoon face on both sides.

The loop on the pendant itself bears the standard Imperial Russian Silver hallmark - "84" with the coat of arms of the city of Arkhangelsk is Archangel Michael with raised wings and a sword slaying a dragon, 1880-1890.
The pendant measures approximately 20mm in length.
