In 1967 internationally renowned sculptor,
 silversmith and jewellery designer Stuart Devlin
started making unique decorative Easter eggs
 for which he is well known;
the egg he made in 1974 contained an Opal mosaic
 and is a renowned objet d’virtu.
Devlin gifted his decoratively jewelled eggs to his patrons,
Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II amongst them.

Look how many pieces involved!!
And each of them have such colours and patterns...


It almost looks like painted.



What a fantastic collaboration
between
amazing opals created by the nature
and an amazing art created by a human being!!!!!
