Your "Faberge" eggs are "eggsquisitely" exquisite. It would appear to be a very delicate craft, i.e. handling the egg shells. Do you finish them with some sort of fixative to make them less fragile? They are lovely indeed and your expertise is enviable. i refrained from a play on eggspertise because i don't want you to think i do not take your talent seriously. Guess I am feeling playful with words today. Your eggs are beautifully displayed and photographed. Even Faberge would have to look twice at their authentic appearance.

Thank you , yes they can be very delicate especially the small ones & no we don't normally coat them with anything except paint .
