Fabergé x Gemfields Malaika Egg

This exquisite egg object was unveiled in July 2024, the month for which ruby is the birthstone, with $100,000 from its sale to be donated to the Gemfields Foundation, to support community projects which alleviate poverty in Mozambique.

‘Malaika’ means ‘angel’ in Swahili, a language spoken in Mozambique, where the rubies on this precious egg were unearthed. The fiery, deep red gems featured in this piece were responsibly mined at the Montepuez ruby mine in Mozambique, which is majority-owned by Gemfields. These rare and precious rubies are set in 18k rose gold and paired with white and brown diamonds, pink sapphires, amethysts and pearls. The Fabergé x Gemfields Malaika Egg was made by a small team of craftspeople in England, using time-honoured techniques.
