Introduction: Opals and More

When I think of Faberge Eggs I think of precious and semi precious stones. The inspiration for my egg is entitled Renaissance Egg. Though this egg does not look like my egg there are several similarities between them. Note the surround findings, they are very close in looks, plus they used cabochon rubies I used cabochon opals. On this ostrich egg I used 75 opals. Opals can come in several colors, so I had to pick the ones that look close in color.
