The Most Awesome Eggs

The Most Awesome Eggs

Eggs are not just for Easter. So here are the best and most awesome  ones we have come across. With some help from our social media followers I have sift through all the egg 'entrees' and collated this list. I'm sure you will agree this is a pretty impressive selection.   

ONE - Panthere by French Artist Christel

        
This artist carves and paints all sorts of egg shells from quail and ostrich egg shells.
This egg can also be illuminated from the inside with a stand support made by the artist Christel to illuminate her sculpted eggs, thus highlighting her extra-ordinary work of the shell.

TWO - Faberge Mosaic Egg

One of 50 Easter eggs made for the Russian Imperial family by Carl Faberge the Russian Jeweller.  This egg took over a year to make and was presented in 1914.  Made in a hand cut gold mesh frame with, platinum, enamel, diamonds, rubies, emeralds, topaz, quartz, sapphires, garnets and moonstone 
 

THREE - Smooth Egg Sculpture With Bow

Of course we had to include in our top ten, a giant shiny sculpture egg by Jeff Koons. Mirror-polished stainless steel with transparent colour coating. Only 5 uniques ones made each in a different colour. This one named Smooth Egg with Bow was executed in 1994–2009 and estimated at $7-10 million, and sold for $7.4 million 
 

FOUR - Blue eggs

Old Cotwold Legbar eggs are available in most premium supermarkets. These are pretty impressive  for breakfast with a distinctive pale blue shell. Deceivingly delicate outer shell colour hides a rich creamy yoke with a dense flavour. Old Cotswold Legbar eggs have plump and upstanding yokes, proud to be tasty and simply delicious when fried. We prefer them boiled or traditionally coddled.
 
 

FIVE - Vegan Creme Egg

FabFudge has made this Vegan Creme Egg for Easter. The egg covered in dark chocolate & hand finished with edible gold spray paint. It's a stunning eye full. 
These are available for a limited time only.  Unlike shop bought Easter Eggs, FabFudge egg's are solid all the way through!  
FabFudge was created in August 2016 on the back of an idea to help fundraise for Reboot Me With HSCT – A Multiple Sclerosis Fundraiser.
 

 

SIX - Graffiti Egg by Cope2

Part of the 2014 big Egg Hunt in New York City
