About the Item

Original super-egg's one very rare in brass accompanied by one regular in silver plate. This set was designed by the Danish multi-artist Piet Hein in 1965 and manufactured by Skjøde in Denmark. Originally they were intended to be used as drink coolers. The eggs both measures H 3 x W 2.5 cm. Both are in good condition with overall surface wear from use and a patina appropriate for their age. The original leather pouch is included.
