53.2. Faberge Fridays


The Mathilda Geddings Gray Faberge Collection has been on display at Cheekwood since 2007. The collection, which was started in the 1930s, has 57 rare pieces including 3 Russian Imperial Easter eggs, fantasy and floral pieces. Though the collection has been with us for several years, it is now being moved to a new location at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. Before leaving, Cheekwood has started Faberge Fridays (April 22 through June 3) with docent-led tours starting at 2pm on Fridays. All visitors will receive a complimentary copy of the collection catalogue.
