A Pair of Photograph Frames. A pair of silver-mounted Orsk Jasper photograph frames from the workshops of Peter Karl Fabergé, made between 1908 and 1917 in the Rococo taste, with oval apertures, surrounded by laurel leaf wreaths and the outside border with bead decoration; topped with ribbon and bow surmount. The wooden backs with scroll design easels. Both frames are hallmarked on the bottom in Cyrillic “Fabergé”, “Kokoshnik” (facing right) with the 84° “zolotiniks” standard mark in an oval field and initials “KF”. Every applied part (the laurel wreaths surrounding the apertures, and the easels) is hallmarked with “Kokoshnik” and initials “KF”. Good antique condition, wear consistent with age and use. Both frames have preserved their original beveled glass. Excavated within the Orsk city line in the Mount Polkovnik (Ural mountains) is one of the most notable kind and is considered to be an “aristocrat” of the semi-precious stones Russia is famous for. Orsk jasper is revered for its variety of natural designs and colors. The grayish-green background color highlights the paler gray and milk-white natural patterns of this uncommon gemstone, forming an attractive contrast with the clean and simple lines of silver that elegantly frames it.
