Easter Rabbit, Easter Rabbit......

.... recently i was told  that i am too old for an easter egg hunt, first i was really sad that there won´t be the annual chocolate mess but i have found something way more figure friendly and desirable than an ordinary chocolate egg, the Fabergé Egg


Lillies of the Valley Egg

The Mosaic Egg

The Pelican Egg

The Madonna Lilly Clock Egg

The Order of Saint George Egg

The Basket of Wild Flowers Egg

The Gatchina Palace Egg

 
The Clover Leaf Egg

The Rose Trellis Egg

The Alexander Palace Egg

The Bay Tree Egg

The Napoleonic Egg

The Grisaille Egg

  
The  Peter the Great Egg


The Coronation Egg,...
 known from the Ocean´s Twelve movie

....those jeweled eggs, forerunners of our suprise eggs, were produced by the House of Fabergé on order of Tsar Alexander III for his beloved Tsarina Maria Fyodorovna, after his death his son Tsar Nicholas II continued to give eggs to his mother and his wife until he was assassinated,....
anyway  42 of the 50 eggs survived the riots in Russia and rest in museeums all over the world, so if you find a preciouse looking egg in your granny´s living room it´s maybe one of the missing eggs

......so enough about eggs!!!!
