Hand Painted German Wooden Hanging Eggs
Hand Painted German Wooden Hanging Eggs
Our favorite spring decoration to hang on blooming branches, this classic set of 6 hand painted wooden egg set is made delicately in the same village that makes all our Ornaments & Christmas Tree Toppers. Originally made popular in Germany & then in Scandinavia, hanging eggs on branches for Easter has been lost over the years.
Of course, eggs are a long-held symbol of life, and Easter happens to fall during Earth's rebirth at spring. The tree decorating ritual may have just been seen as a way to welcome the arrival of new blooms, buds, and chirping birds.
Set of 6
Various colors
Handmade in Erzebirge, Germany
