As Head Work Master for Peter Carl Faberge from 1885 to 1903, Michel
Perchin was the catalyst that propelled the already famous Faberge firm to become the world-renowned jeweler of Russian Royalty. It was he who built the
Imperial Faberge Eggs given by the Tsars to members of the Royal Family.The Metropolitan is an exquisite design inspired by the magnificent
Metropolitan architecture of the late 1800's, and early 1900's. This Michel Perchin piece represents the creation and admiration of our beloved cities
around the world.
Each piece is meticulously hand-crafted in Europe from a solid rod of .925 sterling silver and engraved to the highest
world-class goldsmith standards. Multiple layers of translucent enamel are baked on to the guilloche (engraved) pattern adding depth and beauty to the
herringbone design. This synergism of the latest technology and old-world craftsmenship produces a classic design with a transparency of modern
sophistication.
Fitted with Michel Perchin's 18-karat gold nib, the Metropolitan is available in a fountain pen or rollerball and is limited
to only 88 pieces worldwide of each mode and color.
