A technical drawing of a Flageolett, done by hand on A3 paper This part shows the head as a half-cut. A half-cut is used to show the exterior and the interior of an instrument. It helps to understand how it was built and gives more details when recreating said instrument. Four different types of hatching indicate different materials. The vertical freehand lines indicate wood (the different densities indicate two different pieces of wood). The straight horizontal lines indicate ivory and the horizontal freehand lines indicate thread winding used on the joints. The least used hatching is diagonal from top left to bottom right. This one is usually used to indicate metal

The Egg "Yacht 'Standart' " (1909) It was created by Faberge masters from rock crystal, gold, platinum, diamonds, enamel and lapis lazuli. The main surprise was an incredibly accurate miniature replica of the imperial yacht "Standart", the famous "floating palace" of Nicholas II, where even tiny boats, ladders, anchors and a movable rudder were worked out. Almost all the details of the model were moving, making it one of Faberge's most technically challenging and impressive Easter eggs.
