Daffodils








Daffodils
This embellished egg features a charming scene of beloved daffodils. Shown in its emblematic shades of sunny yellow, soft white and touches of orange and pink, these joyful blooms are framed by a gathering of fan-like olive green leaves, and displayed on a hand-painted solid wood egg.
The flowers and leaves have been carefully sculpted using the finest quality Japanese air dry clay, and are then hand-painted individually using artist’s grade acrylic and gouache paints.
The scene is then created by arranging the clay components and bonding them one at a time to the egg.
The egg has been painted by hand in a soothing shade of green (Green Ground by Farrow and Ball). No detail being left unappreciated, the egg also features an extra special detail: a delicate layer of speckles are flecked about the egg’s painted shell, enhancing the realism and delight of this celebration of spring!
Egg has a flat bottom for ease of display. Also comes with a solid wood stand, stained and varnished in a rich shade of walnut and trimmed with gold foil paper embellishments from Germany. Sealed with an archival acrylic varnish.
