Knut-Oskar Pihl (1860–1924) was a Finnish jeweler and head master of the Moscow branch of the House of Fabergé between 1887 and 1897. At the age of six, Pihl was sent from Finland to St. Petersburg to live with his uncle, a watchmaker. He later trained in the workshop of the renowned Finnish jeweler August Holmström. His skill and precision so impressed Holmström that in 1887 he arranged the marriage of his daughter Fanny to Pihl and recommended him to Carl Fabergé.
