The egg - a symbol for Easter: opening, coming out, being born again... and who is coming out?
Six little animals are waiting to be born and come out of this wooden Easter egg: You will find a sheep and two lambs, a cock and two hens. From the outside you see a green tree and a yellow flower.
You can open the egg like a book, take all buy figures out, arrange them and after Easter put everything back and close it.
I made it from a birch tree log, which I chopped into four slices and bond together like pages of a booklet. The figurines are carved carefully, smoothed and painted with nontoxic color and varnished with natural oil.
The height of the egg is 4.7" (12 cm), the width will be 3.1" (8 cm).
Please have in mind, the figurines are quite small, therefore it is not supposed to be played with by little children.
