The beauty of bejewelled Faberge eggs have always captivated but there are very few and beyond expensive. However, one Etsy artisan, aptly named Eggstreme, has a delightful and modern take on the fabled eggs for he carves and embellishes real eggs.
From duck, goose to even ostrich eggs, his intricate and “egguisite” work are beautifully displayed on stands. Like the original Faberge eggs, his creations also hinge open. The satin lined interior provides special storage for something special. Some egg designs also include a music box. One design even has a hinged butterfly on the lid.
