In the dazzling world of precious stones and noble metals, certain jewelers stand out, mastering the art of harmonizing understated elegance with absolute refinement, genius with design, and sophistication with eternal, unforgettable splendor.
The name Fabergé, emblematic of originality and synonymous with the creations of a legendary house, has left an indelible mark on the history of jewelry and decorative arts. Renowned for uniting jewelry, artistic design, and utility into objets de luxe and objets de fantaisie, Fabergé's creations have always captivated with their exquisite craftsmanship. Fashioned from gold, silver, enamel, and precious stones, the pieces produced in Fabergé's workshops testify to exceptional virtuosity, marked by meticulous attention to detail and perfect material harmony. Even works inspired by earlier stylistic vocabularies bear the unmistakable mark of originality.

The National Museum of History of Moldova treasures a spectacular ladle, crafted in Fabergé's workshops in the late 19th century.
The Fabergé ladle is a curious blend of the "Russian style" and the "modern style." Made of solid silver, it features a circular, gold-plated bowl. Its raised, stylized handle (hook-shaped) is adorned with vegetal motifs, triple rings, and silver pearls. The rim is embellished with a wide band composed of rectangular medallions, decorated with spiral loops and stylized scales arranged alternately. The bowl is supported by four hemispherical feet. At the center, engraved inscriptions read: Eugenie von Platonow/St. Petersburg and ТОРГОВЫЙ ДОМЪ „АЛЕКСАНДРЪ"/1863/15/10/1913.
Research suggests that this ladle was commissioned by Alexander Trauberg, a first-guild merchant and owner of the "АЛЕКСАНДРЪ" Trading House located at Nevsky Boulevard 11, St. Petersburg. It was likely created to mark the 50th anniversary of his business in 1913.
The hallmark stamped on the base-Fabergé's K. ФАБЕРЖЕ logo surmounted by the Russian Empire's coat of arms, alongside the female profile in a kokoshnik within an oval frame, accompanied by the Greek letter Δ (delta) and the silver purity standard "88"-confirms that the piece was produced by Fabergé's Moscow branch.
The hypnotic charm of Fabergé's creations defined the aesthetic ideals of an era, embodying exuberance and refinement, crafted by a jeweler to kings and a king among jewelers.

Objets de la période médiévale de la bourgade de Roman (le point Cuptor)

Tyragetia, serie nouă, vol. X [XXV], nr. 1, Arheologie. Istorie Antică

Mots clef: la bourgade de Roman, outils, faucille, bêche, hache, couteau, chignoles, couteaux, brides, manilles.

Résumé: Le Musée d'Histoire de Roman a reçu en 1989 un lot d'objets en fer de la période médiévale découverts sur la rue Unirii près du centre historique de la ville. Après une série d'activités administratives de la municipalité on a découvert un four et quelques objets en métal. Une fois arrivés au musée à la suite d'une donation, les objets sont restés dans les dépôts de l'institution muséale jusqu'en 2015 quand ils nous ont retenu notre attention. En conséquence on a choisi un nombre de 27 objets pour les restaurer. Du point de vue archéologique et historique il est important de présenter ces objets en tenant compte de l'ensemble des découvertes provenant des bourgades médiévales - premièrement il s'agit des outils, pièces importantes quand on cherche d'établir une typologie génrale et puis la location d'où viennent les objets, c'est à dire le centre de la bourgade.

Le contexte de la découverte, près d'un four, et la typologie des objets, outils agricoles et de l'artisanat, éléments provenant des portes et pièces utilisables dans les constructions, nous indiquent l'inventaire d'une habitation. L'absence de la céramique et des autres objets spécifiques pour les artisans démontre qu'on se trouve dans la présence d'un four simple (et pas d'un four de potier ou d'un artisan). Les caractéristiques des outils mais aussi la présence d'un récipient céramique de type maïolique découvert dans le même lieu en 1980 nous ont permis de dater ces artefacts dans la seconde partie du XVIème siècle et le début du XVIIème siècle.
