Nativity of Christ Russian Wooden Egg on Gold Stand

In the Christian East, an “egg” is the symbol of Christ’s Resurrection. As a chick emerges from the shell, so Christ bursts from the tomb to bring us new life. The tradition of placing an icon on an egg is uniquely a Russian tradition. This egg, hand made by artisans in Russia, is a miniature Nativity scene in bold colors and fine detail. As a work of art, it can be displayed year-round, or be given as a holiday treasure to someone on your list. Includes a hand made stand. Made in Russia.
