The Art of Egg Painting

For centuries, in countries like Ukraine (Pysanky), Romania (Oua Încondeiate), Russia, the Czech Republic, Mexico, Greece, and Japan, people have practiced the art of decorating eggs, transforming them into intricate symbols of fertility, rebirth, and renewal.

Our traditional eggs are crafted using a wax-embossing method, where layers of wax build up to form stunning, symbolic designs. This ancient craft has been passed down through generations, originally practiced exclusively by women. Today, only a select few artisans have mastered this meticulous process, ensuring its cultural legacy lives on.

Adorned with vibrant colours and intricate patterns, these exquisite eggs are now displayed in galleries and exhibitions worldwide, celebrated for their artistic and historical significance.

Bring a piece of this cherished heritage into your home with our hand-painted eggs—a timeless symbol of tradition, craftsmanship, and folklore.

A One-of-a-Kind Artisan Creation

At Casa de Folklore, we take pride in offering beautifully handcrafted eggs, each featuring a unique, intricate design. No two eggs are alike, making every piece a truly special keepsake.

Each hand-painted chicken egg is selected at random, but if you have a specific design in mind, we’d be happy to accommodate your request. Simply email us at info@casadefolklore.co.uk before placing your order, and we’ll do our best to assist you.
