I love the shape of eggs.

Below: egg inspiration.
This first photo is from Loom Lady: knitted eggs.

The second photo comes from a Japanese book called "How to Wrap Five Eggs." Apparently now it's out of print, but full of beautiful and creative packaging ideas. Via Rough Stock Studios

Here we have some intricately cut eggs via
People's Daily Online

An Emu egg telephone can be yours for $300 from Thai Pearl.

A Faberge egg, the Rothschild Egg, sold at auction for $21 mil. and has a diamond cockatiel pop out of the top every hour on the hour. Apparently this egg was kept secret for many years and is one of only three Faberge eggs that include clockwork


Another Faberge Egg. This one contains golden chicks and hen.

And check out Mad Silence's Art of the Egg!
