To explore our Collection in your every day, why not check out our egg cups on our website including the Queenie Egg Cup inspired by Queen Elizabeth I. Designed as an egg cup, it can also be used as a salt pot, mini plant holder, jewellery bowl, or candle holder. Each piece is handmade by @katch_skinner and takes over a week to create, as it is first slip cast and carved and fettled, before being under-glazed and applied with sgraffito. It is bisque fired for two days in the kiln, then glazed, then finally re-fired – for a truly unique and distinctively handcrafted finish. ⭐ Product tagged ⭐ #NationalPortraitGallery #EggCup 🎨 Queen Elizabeth I by Unknown English artist, circa 1588 © National Portrait Gallery, London [IMAGE] A painted portrait of Queen Elizabeth I.
