This is a real Bobwhite Quail egg on a gold-colored metal stand with a tiny hinge, cut along the short center of the egg (side to side). The egg is not glued to the stand. Each egg is for sale individually, there are several eggs in the picture for detail. Unlined and ready to decorate or display, this egg is ideal for making into a jewelry box, miniature peep scene, or decorated egg box. Some artists decorate hinged eggs with polymer clay, quilling, acrylic paint, decoupage, or findings and braid. Each of our eggs is handmade and the edges are slightly textured. The hinge is positioned knuckle out, so that the egg opens all the way. It opens easily with a delicate touch to the edge of the lid while holding the body gently but firmly. Bobwhite Quail, white, @ 1.25 inches tall, 3.5 inches around the tallest circumference, 3 inches around the fattest circumference, 3/16ths inch hole or no hole (dried). Porous white surface, often textured by natural white on white details. Thin, but the most flexible of all the eggs.
