This egg has been colored with Urushi Japanese lacquer and painted with fine brass lines using the Maki-e technique. The design is reminiscent of a stylized plant motif and blends harmoniously into the shiny surface.

The brass finish gives the egg a warm glow that varies depending on the incidence of light.

The egg is available as a single piece. The light wood base shown is for display purposes and can be purchased separately.
Each egg is carefully handcrafted and is unique in its motif and surface.
