Antony Lindsay, the Newly-Minted Fabergé CEO, on Tradition and Modernity
If you think Fabergé?s only claim to fame are jewelled eggs, you?ll be wrong.

Antony Lindsay, CEO of Fabergé
On a warm afternoon in the middle of nowhere, Antony Lindsay, the newly-appointed CEO of Fabergé sits before us as the ice in a glass next to an unopened can of Coke, tinkles as it melts. As the CEO of a storied brand like Fabergé, Lindsay?s task is to spread the word (and work) of the Romanov?s favourite jewellery house. With Sincere Watch Limited as its official retailer in Singapore, Fabergé continues to make its presence known. And yes, Fabergé is synonymous with the gem-encrusted eggs but the house has other achievements like jewelled boxes; animals carved out of precious stones and other ornamental objects.
In 2007, the brand underwent a revival. Taking inspiration from its storied past, Fabergé created original pieces like the Vissionnaire watches, where a Chronograph model displays two time zones at once, and the Altruist line, which has a clean and simple-to-read dial, with a crown that?s reminiscent of winding up a traditional clock. The collection that secured Fabergé?s footing in the hard jewellery world is the Compliquée models, which won the 2015 Grand Prix d?Horlogerie de Genève award.
As water pools at the bottom of the glass, Lindsay talks to us. About his history, where Fabergé is at and the future.
