An early 1800's custom was to send Easter greetings accompanied by a keepsake. During Napoleon III era,these hand blown eggs were at its peak, and were often hand painted by the giver.

I seldom come across these German miniature fences usually used for feather trees at Christmas or as toy fencing.However this one is large enough for the standard tree, as shown with the Swiss green glass tree stand! How charming is that? It is very sturdy handmade with hinges so it folds up! One spindle is loose, and missing. The green paint is original I believe. Not only for Christmas, but wonderful for display all year. Maybe you could coral some baby chicks at Easter!

These 5 Bristol egg cups all have the original older mark on the bottom. There are a few tiny nicks and one has a chip on the lip as seen in the photo. Quite collectible even in this slightly imperfect shape. I have more of Crown Ducal red Bristol.Feel free to inquire of item availability.
