The practice of decorating eggs is an ancient art form, possibly pre-dating pottery. These stunning works of art are created by meticulously applying beeswax to eggshells, layering dyes and wax to achieve intricate designs. When the wax is melted away, the rich colors are revealed and the humble but precious egg is transformed into a work of art.
