Lot 62: SOLD 'Aurore' by Nicky Haslam for Fabergé
I was inspired by the new dawn of the legendary Fabergé and its famously beautiful, bejewelled eggs. What more fitting an image could there be than a bird's gilded plumage, embedded in crystalline rock, ready to take flight into a world of precious stones?

Lot 63: SOLD 'Perdita ' by Bruce Oldfield
I wanted to produce something almost precious, certainly something which reflects the traditions of crafting dresses by hand. Whether being moulded onto a body or indeed onto an egg, lace is the perfect material to create a seamless second skin. My egg is definitely feminine, a delicate blush pink and ...

Lot 137: SOLD 'Polar Bear Ballet' by Odile Kidd
Polar bears are my favourite animal. I love the contrast of their somewhat bulky, cumbersome body on land and their wonderfully balletic, graceful movements underwater. Polar bears are endangered and they need to be celebrated in all their glory!

Lot 157: SOLD 'Egglantine' by Yuki Aruga

Lot 163: SOLD 'Phoenix Egg' by Norma Vondee
This exotic, mythical bird bursts into flame and rises again from its own ashes - a beautiful, deep, universal concept.

Lot 172: SOLD 'Nymphéas' by Robbie Honey
In the garden of Maduma, the house I grew up in, we had a pond which was covered in beautiful water lilies which would open at dawn and close at dusk. I remember my grandmother pouring molten wax into the centre of these flowers which would stop them closing at night so that she could use them to decorate ...
