Easter egg

**Goldsmith** · 03-04-2012, 12:08 PM

I thought I had better not enter this months competition as my eggs are a bit special. But I thought you may like to see the three designs that I sketched for a past commission, the customer chose parts of each egg design for his egg. He wanted the base shape of design A, and the surprise to fit inside the egg from design B, and finally the flowers and leaf spray from design C.
I include photos of the finished egg.
Designed and made by me and enamelled by Alan Mudd.

"A bit special" is understating it, they're a *LOT* special!

Here is another one of my Easter egg designs, The Rose Egg would have had a diamond set rose bud brooch as it's surprise. Sadly this one was not commissioned as I would have enjoyed making this one.
