Alexander Caldwell is by far, one of the most amazing, successful, and talented Egg Artist in the world.
Debonaire and charming, meeting Alex always left one with a delightful and indelible impression. Throughout his life, Alex founded / created many businesses. Though founding Vivian Alexander was the most dearest to his heart. It is here where Alex and his daughter Liza, as their Chief Designer, created masterpiece Egg minaudiéres and objects d’art for well over two decades.
Alex’s impeccable talent in Egg Artistry drew the attention of the Forbes family, until recently the keeper of the World’s finest and most extensive Faberge collection. Alex and his team were personally invited to work with Kip Forbes and the Forbes Foundation for over 7 years. Alex and his team were granted exclusive access to study the magnificent Imperial Faberge Egg collection, mastering the meticulous techniques of enameling and Guilloche on precious metals.
Alex was later commissioned by Warner Brothers to make an exact replica of the Faberge Imperial Coronation egg for the movie Oceans 12.
We sadly lost Alex in late September 2021. But his profound legacy lives on in his magnificent work. I’m blessed to have had Alex as a mentor and to have a cherished piece of Alex’s work in my private collection, The Coronation II Vintage Purse (shown below).
