Some lovely items there Ray, makes you want to carve wooden eggs. Some nice White Beech or Silver Ash would make a nice egg. Be nice to do some for easter.

Considering the price and the amount of work involved I would say the items under priced.

Nice one Ray :2tsup:

Rumour has it that Vern has done similar to the obverse sides of all his eggs, but is too shy to show in piccies :no:

After reading the PDF on the processing of the Meerschaum to a cheese like consistency , I guess it would be easier to carve the Meerschaum than wood but as Hughie says the eggs would seem to be way underpriced .
Interesting
