This gorgeous and rare antique Easter egg with rabbit is a truly enchanting piece. The vibrant purple silk egg was originally made as a sealed candy container, designed not to open. Its richly colored silk covering is beautifully hand painted with graceful white arching lily-of-the-valley and delicate blue forget-me-nots springtime motif.
At the top of the egg sits an adorable rabbit, holding a bell in each hand and dressed in his Easter best, complete with a green polka-dotted bow.
 
Measuring 11 inches tall, this outstanding and truly one-of-a-kind Easter display makes a striking addition to antique holiday collections. Its rare materials, vibrant colors, and delightful subject matter make it a standout treasure for collectors and lovers of early Easter artistry.  You’ll never see another one.
