Fedor Ruckert worked for CARL FABERGE(Court Jeweler to the Tsars).He was born in Moscow, of German origin, made articles in cloisonne enamel in Moscow. Faberge's Moscow signature often obliterates Ruckert's initials. Ruckert also sold his cloisonne objects independently, which explains why a number of his pieces bear no Faberge signature. Due to this reason we could not tell for sure if this egg was made for Carl Faberge shop or independently...
