"Paradise" : 7th in Persian Rug Series
This particular egg is the 7th to be released in the Persian Rug series and is the 19th original design that I have released to the public this year.
This design is titled "Paradise", inspired by a rug from the Laver Kerman area of Iran. It features four medallions of multitudes of colorful flowers arranged in a star-burst pattern set against the black background.
As with all my eggs, it is etched to enhance the design, some areas are raised against the background to create a three dimensional effect.
