Goose egg decorated with tools and horseshoes. There is a horseshoe on top and bottom, with 5 tools all around. On the front it says N y V and then K 1970. Everything is handmade and is attached to the egg with small "rivets". Very difficult without breaking the egg and is a time consuming task and a gift given only to special people. Very decorative to put down like this. The base plate, rod and star are made of copper, the egg can rotate on its axis. Over the years the egg has broken at the bottom, see photo. Height 15 cm Diameter 10 cm
Easter was an important holiday in Russia when it was customary to exchange gifts. These were often beautifully decorated eggs, because they symbolized fertility. In 1885, Tsar Alexander III commissioned his jeweler Fabergé to create an Easter egg for his wife, Tsarina Maria Feodorovna. Thus the first Fabergé egg was born.
