We have been planning to present our items in Saint-Petersburg for a long time. Despite the delivery service with a free trying-on option, the important advantage of a jewelry brand is to provide the customer the opportunity for an authentic shopping experience with the ability to receive professional advice from a specialist. Fabergé Museum Store is now the place where you can do it all.
The Fabergé Museum in Saint Petersburg is located in the city center on the crossing of the Fontanka Embankment and Nevsky Prospekt. It was founded for the preservation, study and promotion of Russian cultural heritage. The basis of the exhibition consists of the biggest collection of products by Carl Faberge in the world.
Art has inspired us in the design of all our pieces, though it is not only art Leta has in common with this museum, but also history. Thanks to the House of Fabergé, Russia as a country became widely associated with jewelry and not only because of the iconic imperial Easter eggs. Dozens of artists worked for the Faberge company, having designed pieces of art, interior decorations and gifts. It is Faberge whom we must praise for the beginning of the entire jewelry industry in Russia and for the fact that jewelry became fashionable.
The museum store is much more than just a gift shop near the exhibition exit. Here are presented the works of different artists and designers who share their views with the traditions of the House. There are the pieces from interiors, clothing, accessories and, of course, jewelry. It is an honour for us to be able to present our works to the visitors of this museum.
Since the beginning of our story, we have been thinking about the necessity of having an ajustable chain lock on our necklaces and pendants. In the case of a pendant on a chain, it is a matter of aesthetics as to how you want to wear your favourite piece – tighter to your neck or closer to the decolatte. It is different and more critical in the case of a necklace as it could turn out to be too big or, the opposite, be so small that you couldn`t easily fasten it.
Amber is one of the oldest gemstones people know since paleolithic era. There have been many theories regarding amber origin. Roman author Pliny the Elder (1st century AD) was the first scientist to prove that amber is a fossilized tree resin. He paid attention to the fact that when burning amber emits smoke and smells with resin. Today organic origin of amber is generally recognized.
Modernism is a kind of mix of art deco architecture, constructivism and avant-garde painting, transferred to our pieces. Developing took about six months, and it was a complicated but very interesting process – first sketches, close interaction with jewelers, understanding all those uneasy specifics of working with amber, also selection of suitable stones and materials.
Last Friday we hosted a presentation of our current collection Modernism and also an opening of our first showroom at Roden Manor. It felt cozy and friendly that evening. We talked about the history of Leta and the creation of our collection, also received warm feedback from our beloved guests and shared our plans. Now you can visit our showroom at Kitay-Gorod and try on all your favorite items.
