Commissioned by Tsar Alexander III as an Easter gift for his wife, it further cements the Fabergé egg’s cultural significance as a symbol of love, luxury, and meticulous craftsmanship within the Russian royal family.

The design of the phone card emphasizes the elegance and historical importance of the Fabergé egg. The background features a muted, soft black gradient that highlights the brilliant gleam of gold and enamel, drawing the viewer’s eye directly to the open egg.
