Product description

 At the turn of the 19th century (ca 1890—1910) Art nouveau, or Jugendstil, was the most popular style of art, architecture and decorative arts. It was inspired by natural forms and structures and its highly decorative features made an impact on art as well as on everyday life. The style got many different names – next to “art nouveau“ it is also known as “art deco“ or “le style Mucha“ – because painter Alfons Mucha, author of many famous original posters , strongly influenced fashion trends worldwide. The luxurious egg-shaped jewel "Art Deco" is made in the unmistakable Art nouveau style. It serves as a case for another great surprise – a gold one-ounce coin with the motif of Gustav Fabergé. With the coin hidden inside the luxurious case Czech Mint commemorates the 200th anniversary of birth of the great master jeweller and his work.

All eggs serving as luxurious cases for coins included in Czech Mint’s series “Gustav Fabergé“ were created by talented goldsmith Alexandr Belov; they are distinguished fromeach other by an original motif. The reverse of the gold NZD 50 coin was designed by outstanding medal maker Asamat Baltaev, it features the portrait of the icon of jewellers Gustav Fabergé, the year of his birth (1814), the year of issue (2014) and his name. The obverse created by the same artist shows a miniature of the egg-shaped jewel, the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, denomination of the coin NZD 50, and the name of the issuer – Niue Island. Gold one-ounce coins packaged in luxurious cases are numbered on the edge and delivered with a velvet folder containing a certificate of origin on a handmade paper and a lithograph with the portrait of Gustav Fabergé. The egg-shaped jewel hiding a gold one-ounce NZD 50 coin is an appealing invitation for all art lovers to invest in art. Its beauty and permanent value will certainly please every fan of exceptional quality and luxury!
