Description:

The hand painted 'bird and flower' scenery on these solid jade eggs demonstrates the Oriental dynamic of Yin and Yang; birds fly freely through the air, while the flora is fixed to the earth. Painting them together is a common Chinese theme that illustrates the push and pull of Taoist thought, the classic balance of the universe. In addition the flowers themselves have symbolic meaning. Longevity is represented by the branch of plum blossom flowers, and prosperity, by the large chrysanthemum flowers. The egg shape is also symbolic, representing spring and fertility. Each egg is fashioned of solid Jade, which has been valued by humanity for over 7,000 years. In ancient China it was considered more precious than gold or silver. Early Chinese Dynasties demanded tribute payments be made in Jade. In China's mythologies, the ruler of heaven and creator of humanity is the Jade Emperor, demonstrating that Jade is held in the highest regard. The unique green stone is harder than steel and was used by early civilizations for tools. Each egg comes with a stand for display.

4Amazing!!!!Nov 05, 2009
These eggs ate tiny, with the stand they are about 1 1/2 inches in height. Which makes the handpainted details even more remarkable. One of my eggs has a lady pained on the the facial details on something so small is amazing. Will order more.

I bought these for a gift and the recipient just loved them. They were a little smaller than I expected, but that just made the detailed painting that much more amazing!
