A pair of eggs (chicken) painted by hand - an amazing and special item
Original from Romania. A chicken egg that has undergone a special process to remove the contents without breaking the shell.
Description of the history of the item: "Four thousand years ago, the Chinese painted by hand and with natural colors bird's eggs for the celebration of the Spring Festival, and the birth of a child. From the fourth century AD, people found painted bird's eggs symbolizing the hope for a new life. Among Hindus, the universe is called the 'Brahma Egg' ', named after the creation story from Indian mythology. After the death of Jesus, the Easter egg became a symbol of Jesus' resurrection in the twelfth century. The egg was and is an object that has been given a lot for centuries as a valuable gift.
