==Personal life== [[File:Augusta Faberge.jpg|thumb|upright|Augusta Julia Jacobs {{circa|1872}}]] Henry Bainbridge, a manager of the London branch of the House of Fabergé, recorded recollections of his meetings with his employer in his autobiography,<ref>''Twice Seven: The Autobiography of H C Bainbridge'' (Routledge, London, 1933)</ref> as well as the book he wrote about Fabergé.<ref>''Fabergé: Goldsmith and Jeweller to the Imperial Court – His Life and Work'' (Batsford, London, 1949)</ref> The autobiography also records the memories of François Birbaum, Fabergé's senior master craftsman from 1893 until the House's demise.<ref>''The History of the House of Fabergé according to the recollections of the senior master craftsman of the firm Franz P. Birbaum'' This was handwritten in 1919 at the request (or order) of the Soviet authorities. It added considerably to the knowledge of how the House of Fabergé operated. The English translation was published by Tatiana F Fabergé (great-granddaughter of Peter Carl Fabergé) and Valentin V. Skurlov in St. Petersburg in 1992.</ref> ===Family=== Fabergé had five sons with Augusta Julia Jacobs, whom he married in 1872.{{sfn|Lowes|McCanless|2001|p=196}} Four of his sons lived to adulthood: Eugène (Evgeny) (1874–1960), [[Agathon Carl Theodor Fabergé|Agathon]] (1876–1951), [[Alexander Julius Fabergé|Alexander]] (1877–1952), and Nicholas (Nikolai) Leopold (1884–1939).
