"Celebration Crackers (From
1990)"
Christmas crackers are a British custom. Traditionally
made from tissue paper, the cracker is pulled from both ends. When the
cracker finally divides, the individual with the larger share of the cracker
wins the surprise within. As a series of 6, each vermeil cracker by Theo
Fabergé, is engine turned and delicately enameled. Each precious cracker
opens to reveal a special surprise.
- The Ruby Cracker An 18
carat gold pin of traditional mistletoe.
- The Emerald Cracker A vermeil and enamel whistle.
- The Sapphire Cracker A vermeil and enamel drum with a
bear hidden within.
- The Citrine Cracker A miniature
telescope of vermeil with enamel.
- The Amethyst Cracker An 18 carat gold Christmas tree
with enamel and amethyst.
- The Diamond Cracker An 18 carat gold snowdrop pin with
a diamond within the stamen.
