Violet Tulip & Rushnyk Pysanka — a real Ukrainian goose egg, hand-painted in the traditional wax-batik technique, set on a rare bright violet background. A white zigzag crown frames red tulip-like flowers with green leaves at the top, while a narrow rushnyk-style band with a fine white crosshatch texture runs down the center of the egg. The rest of the shell is covered in a dense yellow-and-red diamond lattice, dotted with small golden star rosettes.
The bright violet background is a rare and eye-catching choice in pysanka art, and the rushnyk band recalls the embroidered ceremonial towels used in Ukrainian homes to bring blessing.
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.
