Each egg has different characteristics. Goose eggs are two to three times larger than ordinary chicken eggs, and their shell is also far more robust. This makes them perfect for scoring or engraving. First, the goose eggs are blown out and coloured or dyed as desired. Then it's on to the finishing touches, the scoring. This requires a steady hand and a lot of dexterity. Motifs, sayings and wishes are engraved onto the eggs with a small scoring device. The art lies in the regularity of the scoring and requires the finest intuition, otherwise a hole is easily made.

But not only patience and manual dexterity is required for this craft. The creativity for the combinations of patterns and texts comes from the heart and testifies to the artistic vein of farmwomen. To depict so much in such a small area is a true challenge.

Scored or engraved goose eggs are excellent for special occasion gifts. You want to immortalize your wishes for the birth of a new baby or the wedding of dear friends? The message on the egg can be customized. So it will be your very personal and unique gift.
