More information

Juvelerarfirman Karl Hahn var en av de större leverantörerna till det ryska kejserliga hovet av presentationsgåvor. Firman upphörde 1911 och haltstämpeln på auktionens brosch infördes 1908 vilket ger ramarna för tillverkningstiden.
1909 gör kejsarparet, Nicholaus II och Alexandra ett officiellt statsbesök i Sverige. Vid detta tillfälle delades ett stort antal gåvor ut de flesta idag svåra att identifiera. Möjligen gavs denna brosch vid detta tillfälle.
