These sculpted ceramic eggs originate on the remote Indonesian island of Kalimantan. Only the lucky eggs with a "magic" moving center-you can hear them rattle when shaken-are selected. Hand-inscribed with symbols of time on the exterior, the eggs are believed to bring a year of good luck, as long as the center continues to move. Our good luck was to discover these marvelously curious, ivory-hued objet. Sits on recycled metal stand.
how old are they?
ReplyDeleteHi Theresa,
DeleteThanks for your question.
I didn't write this post. Reading on the web, these eggs don't seam to be specially ancients. Some factories send them actually. It seams it could be a maraca type musical instrument. I don't find anything else.
