Hand Carved Victorian outlet Lace Bantam Chicken Egg Pair - Pale Sage

This diminutive pair is ready to ship.

The process of creating these delicate beauties began by sketching a design on tiny 1 1/4 inch chicken shells. Then, a high-speed drill was used to cut that dotted oval filled with a vine and flower motif on the pale green shell and on the front and back of the second shell. Listing photos show these eggs alongside jumbo white chicken eggs to better convey their color and size.

All eggs come with complimentary stands and are beautifully packaged. They are wrapped with great care and shipped via USPS Priority Mail. If this is to be sent as a gift, alert me and I will remove the pricing from the packing slip. Feel free to write a message to the recipient at checkout and I will include your remarks in a card.

Victorians, fond of ornamentation, decorated their eggs with snippets of daily life: trade cards, ribbons, beads, and bits of old lace. The eggs I create today echo these treasures. They are etched or carved in patterns reminiscent of fine Victorian needlework, and so I call these delicate works outlet of art, Victorian Lace Eggs.®
