I believe it was Carl Faberge, of the House of Faberge, who made these "Faberge eggs" as they are usually called. See the Related Link below for the Wikipedia entry on the Faberge eggs.
Faberge eggs are essentially 'dioramas' -- three-dimensional miniatures made from metal and set with precious stones. Faberge was the court jeweler to the Czar of the Russian Empire. Extensive planning and drawing precedes any fabrication, then the process of fashioning the metal, applying any enamel and setting jewels into the 'structure' ensues. You can read more, below.
