Spiral Egg1 - Eric Pratt

Spiral Egg

A hollow, swirl-ribbed egg that splits in two for hiding treats, trinkets or a tiny surprise.

Every ridge on this egg spirals from the crown down to its base in one continuous, unbroken sweep, more like a nautilus shell than anything from the Easter aisle. In the photos you can see it in a glossy azure blue and a punchy lime green, and that satin sheen sits right in the grooves of every twist. What you cannot tell from a photo is that it opens. The egg is two halves that snap together along a hidden seam, so the spiral ribs keep running smoothly right across the join. Pop it open and there is a full hollow cavity inside, ready for a ring, a note, lollies or whatever small surprise you want to hide. We print it in PLA+, which gives that crisp defined ridge line and the smooth glossy finish the design calls for. It is a fun one for Easter baskets, a quirky ring box for a proposal, a desk trinket that always gets picked up, or a sneaky spot to stash something for someone to find. Printed to order here in Australia in a size and colour to suit, from a punchy neon green to a deep, moody blue. Because the spiral scales cleanly, we can print it small enough for a single ring or large enough to be the centrepiece on a shelf.
