This newest series was inspired by the beautiful handwoven Persian rugs produced in Iran and surrounding areas. Their intricate patterns and flowing florals are mesmerizing to look at and apply wonderfully to the natural shape of an egg.

This particular egg is the first to be released in this series and is only the 8th original design that I have released to the public this year. It features an intricately detailed ivory cross surrounded by delicate blue flowers and fall oak leaves. This egg is etched to enhance the design, some areas are raised against the background to create a three dimensional effect. Nine shades of dyes were used not including the natural white of the egg.
