Engraved Ostrich Eggs & Lamps
Please scroll to the bottom of the page for PRICES

These Engravings are done on genuine Ostrich Egg shells and 
are very fragile. They can not withstand an impact with any
sharp object. Each egg is sterilised and scrubbed on the outside
and the lamps are also cleaned out inside to ensure a spotless glow.
After the engraving has been completed they are scrubbed again and sealed
with lacquer spray. Each egg is wrapped in bubble wrap and placed into
a box specially designed for ostrich eggs and taped up. Transporting 
them this way is safe as they can withstand fairly rough treatment.
 
All these eggs display very well on their own, even in broad 
daylight,  and are an absolute pleasure to own. Being Ostrich Eggs they 
are fragile and should be kept in a safe place. They can be wiped with 
a damp cloth when dusty.

Important  ! !
Please take care when dusting with a feather duster, as the feathers can 
get snagged in the hole at the top. The eggs with the hole in the top 
are lamps and stand on lamp stands...and the plain eggs are 
standard (not lamps) and stand on plain ceramic stands. 

                     
N.B. Lamp and standard shells can be ordered without any fittings if required.
Lamp Bases
                      
These lamp bases are manufactured in cold cast resin, and given a coat                 
of varnish for added protection. The bases are fitted with a two metre
rip chord, a through switch and an E.S. (Edison Screw) lamp fitting.
                  
                      
As the plug sockets are different for countries outside South Africa, 
no plug tops are fitted. Due to the fact that light bulbs are fragile      
to transport and can not be guaranteed,  they are not included.

                   
 Bulbs should not exceed 15 Watt.
				   
The lamps can be left on for long periods of time and will not crack due 
to the heat of the bulbs, as long as the bulbs are 15 Watt pigmy lamps.
All the lamps are fitted with special metal rings to prevent the eggs from 
cracking when replacing the bulbs.
