'Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.' The egg, set for completion in 2025, is a theatrical tribute blending Fabergé’s craftsmanship with Burton’s iconic gothic style, celebrating the fantastical world of 'Beetlejuice' with a unique and collectable masterpiece.
Developed in partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products, costume designer Colleen Atwood, and Burton himself, this exclusive object d’art echoes 'Beetlejuice’s' eerie charm. Its monochromatic colour scheme, inspired by Betelgeuse’s striped suit and Beetlejuice’s Afterlife corridor, features elements like entwined Sandworms and stitched ‘leaves’ referencing new character Delores. In a Fabergé first, these ‘leaves’ open in unison to reveal a rotating, gem-encrusted wedding cake that nods to 'Beetlejuice Beetlejuice’s' iconic wedding scene.
A surprise lies within: a customizable celebration ring with a 2.2-carat responsibly mined Mozambican ruby from Gemfields, paying homage to Fabergé’s legacy of hidden treasures. Burton, honoured with a Hollywood Walk of Fame star earlier this year, stated, “Working with Fabergé allowed me to create a piece that’s humorous, surreal, and true to both Fabergé’s legacy and my vision.”
Fabergé’s Creative Director, Josina von dem Bussche-Kessell, commented, “Collaborating with Burton has been a dream. Peter Carl Fabergé was the original collaborator, and his spirit continues to inspire us to merge creative brilliance in unique ways.”
