Displayed in an iron and glass case,
these painted and lacquered eggs are a beautiful reminder
of a bygone era.
I remember having a very old one like these
as a child that would open to reveal the treats inside.
I do imagine that the treats in these
would be better than the jelly beans I had.

Genie, the chocolate shops of Paris are always filled with delights. What a fun image. Thanks for sharing and Happy Easter!
ReplyDeleteOh so sweet. Happy Easter.
ReplyDeleteHello Genie,
ReplyDeleteHow beautifully decorated these eggs are and how they deserve their luxurious surroundings!
One can only imagine the delicious contents......what a lucky person will open one of these on Easter Day!
Yikes! Think of the cavities! Not that I care, but my dentist sure would be happy I said that.
ReplyDeleteThey are so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThese are exquisite ... and so beautifully displayed!!!
ReplyDeleteWow! Those are real pieces of art!
ReplyDeleteI bet the old jelly beans were much tastier than the ones they sell today!
ReplyDeleteThese are just beautiful Genie!
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter
blessings,
Penny
These are classics, Genie.
ReplyDeleteI can also remember my mother staying up all night to finish six Easter dresses, and to carry on the tradition I smocked and made dresses for my daughters for Easter day. However, I went to bed before finishing the button holes and buttons. I got my sleep and just basted (slip stitched) them into the dresses before church. After church a seam ripper was all it took to take them off.
ReplyDeleteI cannot imagine doing six!
Have a beautiful weekend.
Bises,
Genie
I love these so much! they remind me a bit of the graphics on my Easter cards!
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter, Genie!
I don't know Genie, jelly beans sound pretty good to me right now, especially in such wonderful 'containers' :)
