This is the meticulously decorated real goose egg that houses a sculpted Christmas tree that rotates atop a festive music box. Requiring three days to complete, each eggshell is intricately cut and carved by skilled artisans who use non-fertilized Grey Lag goose eggs from the Pearl River delta. The egg is painstakingly decorated using over 250 manmade pearls, 150 hand-strung gold acrylic beads, and 14-karat gold plated chains, then hand-painted with a colorful wreath of holly and a bright red and yellow bow. The egg sits atop a satin-covered base adorned with manmade pearls and 14-karat gold plated art deco feet and opens to display a gift-laden Noble fir of sculpted resin, trimmed with traditional garland, frosty patches of snow, and classic globe ornaments. The popular German holiday folk song O Tannenbaum plays on a key-wound musical movement when the egg is opened as the Christmas tree slowly rotates. Presented in a gift box with a certificate of authenticity. 6 1/2" H x 2 ½" diameter. (5 oz.)
