I tried another experiment with translucent polymer clay mixed with opaque clay and a partial application of floral canes to real chicken eggs. After curing i soaked the original egg shell (after i had punched enough away to allow it to fill) with white vinegar (about 5 hours). I sanded the interior to remove the last little bit of shell.
The wrapping of this cane around the egg is less “fun” than the previous yellow daisy egg in my own opinion, but an interesting technique to be sure. Someone who has more patience than i could use this technique to make some really beautiful objects. For me, the invention is the fun part. This hollow style egg would need some original kind of holder for display.
The open part of the egg is visible just a tiny bit at the top, and the lower left bottom one can also see the interior of the egg.
