The Cockerel egg (also called the Cuckoo Clock egg) is one of the Imperial Fabergé eggs crafted by the jewellery firm House of Fabergé. The egg was given in the year 1900 by Tsar Nicholas II to Empress Maria Feodoronova as a gift. The egg has a mechanism on the top rear that enables its bird to come out and move.^[1] Originally, there was a drop-shaped pearl, now lost, hanging from the swag of fruits below the dial, as seen in a historical photograph.^[2]

The egg is part of the Viktor Vekselberg Collection, owned by The Link of Times Foundation, and housed in the Fabergé Museum in Saint Petersburg, Russia.
