Saddlebred Rescue Blog Faberge in London Support SBR at Auction

In anticipation of our annual Brunch and Auction event at Louisville this year we have the honor to be able to offer a rare collector's piece for auction. The St. Petersburg Collection in London, England and MacKerr Imports has selected Saddlebred Rescue Inc. as the beneficiary for a special offer of the Carousel Egg from its Imperial Style Collection. This exclusive offer will help support the rescue and rehab of American Saddlebred horses. This year is the 10 year celebration for our group that has successfully worked with over 1000 horses. The majority of these horses are adopted out and placed in lesson programs across the country introducing new riding enthusiasts to the breed.This piece is #25 in a worldwide limited production of 125. The Carousel Egg was an American inspired creation by Theo Faberge, who is the renowned grandson of Carl Faberge, the Russian jeweler known for his famous Faberge eggs. In addition to the outside of the Carousel Egg covered in royal blue and crimson enamel to mirror a finely crafted antique carousel the inside one will find a working carousel with Theo's signature engine turning. The colorful, enameled horses rise and fall in time with Chopin's carousel waltz when wound.We have made this auction private and easy for all. With this invitation you or your representative are free to contact Kathy Kerr, President of MacKerr Imports with any questions about this offering. Kathy herself will bring the piece to our event in Louisville later next month. This private auction will begin with this invitation and remain open until the close of our Brunch and Auction event at the Crowne Plaza on Thursday August 25th at 1:00 pm in Louisville , Kentucky during the World Championship Horse Show. All parties participating in this offer will receive two tickets to the Brunch. Bids are taken via a special email address or by phone and reported on a private closed web page available to all participants. The reserve has been set by the donor at $25,000.00.
