Guinea Pig Agate and Rubies Made as part of the Sandringham Commission, 1907 Crown Copyright The Royal Collection Image Courtesy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II |
Here’s another of Queen Alexandra’s little Fabergé animals. Another creation from the Sandringham Commission of 1907, this critter was among the many that King Edward VII had made for his consort.
Made of agate with eyes of cabochon rubies, this little fella, sitting on his haunches, is a guinea pig. And, he’s very cute. That’s about all there is to say about him.
