EGGS!

Red and Gold Crystal Faberge Egg from Russia
Red Crystal Egg



It's that time of the year again... When all you see is EGGS... yay!

Eggs are awesome. They symbolize rebirth, new beginnings, and the celebration of life. If they are painted, then the colors may symbolize certain things as well. For instance, when gifting Russian painted wooden eggs, the white eggs are often given to younger folks, as the white egg symbolizes a life yet to be lived. This is just one example of many options for color meanings on eggs. 

Eggs are also often associated with luck. They do make for an interesting and unique gift for your boss's office!

Easter eggs, Russian style, are called Pisanki Eggs. They also have meanings hidden in the colors used.

Faberge eggs and Faberge egg pendants are fun all year round... but gift them at Easter time and I'm pretty sure you'll get a big smile in return!

Religious wooden eggs are wonderful for special occasions, while modern/unique wooden eggs, such as this Golf Lovers Egg are great for special occasions too.

What's your favorite kind of egg? Let us know, comment below!
