Of peasant stock, he moved to St Petersburg as a young boy, took an apprenticeship at Fabergé’s St Petersburg headquarters and quickly rose through the ranks of the workshop, becoming senior workmaster in 1886. Perkhin was responsible for more than half of the Tsar Imperial Easter eggs and the best of Fabergé’s gold objects were produced in his workshop. He helped Carl and Agathon expand the business, to include new techniques and inventions such as transparent enamel and varicoloured gold, hardstone animals and flowers. One of Fabergé’s most treasured pieces the Balletta vase, named after the Russian prima ballerina Elizabet Balletta, came from Perkhin’s workshop. ProvenanceThe brooch of floral design was a gift from Frederick James Merrilees, who served as guardian to a young girl brought up as a companion to the Merrilees’s only daughter. The Merrilees were very generous to their daughter’s companion and she lived an extremely privileged life in their care in England, from the age of 8 to 18 years. This brooch was consigned by the granddaughter of the female companion. Frederick James Merrilees (sometimes spelled Mirrielees) was born in Russia of a Scottish father, Archibald Mirrielees (1797 - 1877), who arrived in St Petersburg and founded ‘Muir and Mirrielees’ Trading Company in 1857. Prior to his partnership with Andrew Muir, Archibald had been resident in St Petersburg from 1822 and in 1843 he established his own company, which was one of the most significant Anglo-Russian merchant houses. In the 1880’s ‘Muir and Mirrielees’ moved to Moscow, the impressive new premises was designed by the famous Russian architect Roman Klein. It was the first and largest department store in the last days of the Russian Empire and offered everything the Muscovites could wish for, satisfying not only the rich and high society, but also middle-class customers. The company was Nationalised during the Russian revolution and was renamed TsUM after 1922. The Merrilees had access to the very best of Russian jewellery and the delicate floral brooch is a tribute to the outstanding workmaster Perkhin, who left an impressive legacy of Fabergé pieces.

A RUSSIAN GOLD CIGARETTE CASE, ST PETERSBURG, 1908-1917The surface with sunburst and diagonal reeding, with cabochon sapphire thumbpiece, struck with maker's mark in Cyrillic 'CB' (in English, it would be 'SV'), possibly by Fabergé workmaster Sergei Verkhovtsev, marked 56 zolotnik-gold standard for 14K gold, width 9.2cm, length 6.4cm, depth 1.6cmReference: Encyclopedia of Who’s Who in the House of Faberge by Will Lowes and Christel Ludewig McCanless, page 191Occasionally a Fabergé piece will bear the initials of a workmaster that cannot be confidently identified. The initials CB on the gold cigarette case are possibly attributed to Sergei Verthovtsev. A gold cigarette case sold at Christies New York in 1998, it was stamped with initials CB and their catalogue suggests Verthovtsev as the workmaster. However, Von Habsburg, Fabergé (1987) states CB was a workmaster for Fabergé’s rival, jeweller Karl Karlovich Hahn. Karl Bok was also thought to have used the initials CB and another possible creator of this piece was an artist called Ekaterina Yakovlevna Aleksandrova. She was the wife of François Birbaum, studied at the Baron Stieglitz Central school of applied arts and later worked for Fabergé.
