~ International Easter egg exchange Leipzig (1) ~

From March 30th to April 4th took place an international "Easter egg exchange" here in Leipzig. The exhibition showed a great variety of exhibits, most of them for sale and gave interesting insides in this traditional art. It was a great pleasure to see the amazing elaborate and marvellous works, which were created by using varying techniques, from all kinds of eggs   - beginning with those from little birds up to ostriches. There were very valuable pieces from and for collectors as well as lovely creations just for Easter decoration. The event attracted experts and lovers as well as families with their children. What a charming place to meet for young and old - just  view the pictures and get an idea.
