Carved Emu Eggshells are unique.
The Emu eggshells are dark green in colour, with a matt surface
– they look like an avocado but larger. The shell is
made of 3 layers. If you carve off the dark outer layer a
blue/green colour is below and if you carve even deeper a
white layer will be revealed. I carve pictures and patterns
into the eggshells revealing these natural colours. No paint
is used.
The designs are all individually drawn and
carved so every one will be unique. I never carve two the
same.
The photographs below show some of my designs.
If you buy one of the designs shown please remember it will
vary slightly, yours will be similar but not exactly the same.
For example: the same type of flower but a different position,
so that your egg is unique. I can always add initials or bows
and bells to the designs for particular occasions.
Commissions:
If you have something special you would like carved into an
Emu eggshell please send a drawing or photograph and I will
send a quote and some sketches for you to see before we confirm
the order.
If you are thinking of a birthday, anniversary
or Christmas present, please order in plenty of time. I need
notice of at least a month.
Carved eggs can be supplied with or without
a stand. The wooden stands are individually turned by a local
craftsman especially for these eggs. I can also supply more
decorative metal stands in either gold or silver coloured
finish.
