Arguably the most unusual private home in the Russian capital, constructed in the shape of a giant egg, is up for sale.

Completed in 2002, the building serves as a counter-argument for those who consider Moscow's architecture grey and boring.

It's been nick-named the Faberge house, after the elaborate creations associated with Russia's royal jeweller.

The home has a price tag of $US 10 million.
