The Heredis Atelier collection comprises museum-grade digital reconstructions of Imperial Fabergé masterpieces — each produced through archival research, built to institutional standard, and registered as a singular edition with full provenance documentation.

The Tsarevich Egg was presented by Nicholas II to Empress Alexandra Feodorovna at Easter 1912 — the year of Alexei’s eighth birthday. Encased in lapis lazuli with gold ornamental relief, it opens to reveal the surprise: a diamond-set double-headed eagle of the Romanov dynasty, at the centre of which rests a miniature portrait of the young Tsarevich Alexei — a private token of dynastic pride enclosed within an object of imperial ceremony.

The Heredis Atelier reconstruction renders this object at a level of detail unavailable to the physical visitor: the guilloché ground beneath the enamel, the precise cut and setting of each stone, the mechanical rotation of the interior star chart — examined from any angle, at any scale, without glass between the viewer and the object.

Created in 1907 for Empress Alexandra Feodorovna, the Trellis Egg is one of the most delicate objects in the Imperial series: a pale green enamel surface overlaid with a diamond-set trellis, each intersection crowned with a rose-cut diamond, the whole surface alive with the optical shimmer of light through multiple translucent layers. It conceals a locket portrait of the three-year-old Tsarevich Alexei — the child whose fragile health would define the final decade of the Romanov dynasty.

The Heredis Atelier reconstruction addresses one of the most technically demanding aspects of this object: the behaviour of translucent enamel over a guilloché ground, viewed through a diamond lattice. No static photograph can capture this. Our rendering pipeline models the optical properties of each layer independently — producing a digital object that reveals, for the first time, what it means to hold this egg in changing light.
