Designer, Maggie Norris created a 'Fabergé Rosebud' Corset,
inspired by the
Imperial Rosebud Egg by Peter Carl Fabergé. Her egg,
for The Fabergé Big Egg Hunt,
is a reconstruction of both the Fabergé Imperial Rosebud Egg (1895) and
her Inspired 'Fabergé Rosebud' Corset.

The Fabergé Imperial
Rosebud Egg, presented in 1895 to the new Czarina Alexandra
by Czar Nicholas II, was a representation of her life
as the Empress of Russia. "The surprise inside was an
enameled golden yellow rosebud, a symbol of the couple's
love for one another. For Czarina Alexandra, the egg was
also a reminder of her native country of Germany, where
the golden yellow rose is the most prized color.
Inside the rosebud was a tiny diamond-set Imperial crown,
representing Alexandra's new life as the Empress of Russia."
