Russian Oil Baron Buys Prized Faberge Imperial Eggs for $90 Million
The Lilies of the Valley Egg
Yahoo! News:
Russian oil and metals baron Viktor Vekselberg has unexpectedly bought the Forbes family collection of fabled Faberge Imperial Easter Eggs and other pieces for more than $90 million, months before Sotheby's was to auction them, representatives said on Wednesday.
None of the parties would disclose the exact price, but a source close to Vekselberg in Russia said: "It was more than $90 million. I won't say how much more, but it was more."
Representatives of Sotheby's auction house and the Forbes publishing family declined to disclose the amount, but Sotheby's estimated the entire collection's value at $90 million to $120 million.
"The family is thrilled by the sale, but they would never discuss the price," said family spokeswoman Monie Begley.
