Masini Collectible Egg - Elephant Collection

Part of the Elephant collection, this exquisite piece depicts the iconic animal symbol of the African continent. The hand-painted motif of a herd of elephants on the African landscape is rendered with warm and rich colors that result from the laborious process of layering paint on the delicate surface of unfertilized emptied ostrich eggshells. A 925 silver base with three elephants made with the lost wax casting technique hold the egg on their raised trunks. This piece will be a well received housewarming gift that will be cherished for generations.
