"1894 Renaissance Egg"
This Fabregé Egg was a gift from Alexander III to Maria Fyodorovna: Made in Saint Petersburg and now owned by The Link of Times Foundation, Russia. "The name for the Egg comes from the source of its inspiration, as well as the Renaissance-style enameled foliate motifs."
There are 7 photos of this Fabregé Egg, along with a quite detailed description, and discussion of its history.
