In photographs of the Imperial Regalia, the artifacts associated with the rulers of Russia, (the crown, scepter and other symbols of rule), the Crown shown here always holds the place of importance. It is reasonable to assume, therefore, that this was the crown used at the coronation of Nicholas II.

It has been reproduced here in sterling silver and large Austrian crystals that dissect the crown into 4 segments. Also, there are two bands of blue running from front to back of the crown that most likely consisted of sapphires, but here are done in deep blue enamel. At the apex of the crown rises a small cross and around the base of the crown is another band of Austrian crystals. The actual crown was completely set in diamonds, here the stones are replicated in sterling. The base of the crown unscrews, the inside is a deep compartment lined in sapphire blue velvet and is large enough to hold a ring or small piece of jewelry. The base is impressed with the Romanov Double Eagle, the name Fabergé and the hallmarks. Also there is a small plaque displaying the item number of this Limited Edition. The Crown is 1.5 inches in diameter and just over 2.5 inches high. It is documented and comes in a blue velvet case impressed with the Romanov Double Eagle and the name Fabergé.
