Hi Zolotnik Since I found this Faberge discussion I was wondering whether any one reading it might know some more about Faberge thimbles — hence my original question. Some time ago my wife and I wrote a paper about Faberge thimbles, and we were just seeking more information please? https://sites.goo...
