Description

Poppy Rushnyk Egg Medallion Pysanka — a real Ukrainian goose egg, hand-painted in the traditional wax-batik technique. A garland of red poppies with white-dotted centers winds around the shell, opposite a red-outlined egg-shaped medallion packed with a fine red-and-white diamond lattice, framed by golden wave borders. Between them runs a wide rushnyk-style band, striped in red with small woven diamond squares, finished off with a scalloped crenellated border and a ribbon of white scrollwork.

The poppy is a folk symbol of remembrance and family memory, while the rushnyk band echoes the embroidered ceremonial towels used in Ukrainian weddings and rituals to bring blessing into a home.

  • Real goose egg (emptied and prepared), not wooden or wax
  • Size: approx. 3.5 in (≈9 cm) length and height
  • Hand-painted, traditional wax-batik (pysanka) method
  • Handmade in Western Ukraine
  • Varnished finish
  • Brand new, never used

As each egg is painted entirely by hand, the exact placement of every line may vary slightly from the photos — this is part of what makes every pysanka one of a kind.
