We are pleased to offer an exquisite icon that is covered by a vermeil rizza. We believe that the icon bears the mark of KF representing the firm of Faberge.In addition it is marked with the assay mark of Moscow and dated 1876 (underneath and pictured).

Hidden in the halo surrounding the Virgin and Child is a repetition of the same hallmarks and on the other side, hidden again there would appear to be the initials in cyrillic KF .

The icon is fully painted beneath the rizza.

We used a 10 power loop on the mark and that is what we believe to be the mark of Faberge.
