Inspired by The Duchess of Marlborough egg Easter egg made by Michael Perchin, under the supervision of PeterFaberge in 1902. It is the only large Faberge Easter egg to have been commissioned by an American, & is inspired by a Louis XVI clock with a revolving dial. It is similar to the 1887Blue Serpent Clock egg. The egg was made for Consuelo Vanderbilt, who became the Duchess of Marlborough when she married Charles Spencer-Churchill, 9th Duke of Marlborough in 1895.In 1902 the Duchess and her husband travelled to Russia, where they dined with Nicholas II of Russia, and visited his mother, the Dowager Empress Maria Feodorovna at the Anichkov Palace.
