I made drafts for the missing Feberge eggs
Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (talk to the cutest Wikipedian) 20:07, 24 May 2023 (UTC)
The article defines a Fabergé egg as an egg essentially produced during the lifetime of Carl Fabergé. I am not sure that is entirely accurate, as one could make the argument a Fabergé egg is anything that is officially produced by an actual Fabergé workmaster. This makes sense as Carl Fabergé himself didn't really produce those eggs himself anyway (for the most part). If we say eggs are considered Fabergé eggs who were produced by official Fabergé workmasters (regardless of Peter Carl being alive or not), then this would include the eggs produced by Victor Mayer -- which is also what Fabergé defines as such on their current history ( https://www.faberge.com/the-world-of-faberge/faberge-history).
Before just updating the article, I wanted to hear differing opinions of the community.
I also want to highlight that there are some confusing phases between 1920 and now on what is actually "Fabergé" and I want to stress that I particularly only want to include the Victor Mayer eggs as Fabergé eggs. This is unlike the licenses given to the Franklin Mint and the Essex Marketing Company, who were allowed by Unilever to produce "Fabergé eggs" and branded products, but they were never actual Fabergé workmasters. Those two companies produced mass consumer products, while Victor Mayer was not just licensed but actually produced with and for Fabergé Limited and is still the Workmaster to this day.
Thanks!
