In China, as far back as the Ming and Qing Dynasties, when people celebrated their weddings, birthdays and babies, they had the custom of giving red eggs for good luck. At that time, it was even more popular in Beijing, with a considerable amount. So some people set up stalls and set up shops to sell dyed red eggs, which are called "eggs". Later, for the sake of prosperous business, vendors painted some patterns such as flowers, birds, fish, insects and faces on eggs.

In European countries, after Christianity was introduced to Europe, around the Middle Ages, people began to paint and decorate the meaning of "rebirth" and "rebirth" on shells, making them Easter decorations. This custom is still popular in Europe and America, which is deeply influenced by Christianity. However, it was the Faberge family who contributed to the promotion of decorative eggs to the art field.

The Faberge family designed the first "Royal Easter Egg" for Tsar Alexander III in A.D. 1884, and was appointed as a jeweler of royal supplies. Since then, the series of royal Easter eggs have been completed one after another, making decorative eggs a world-famous work of art, and their works have occasionally appeared in auctions so far, and they have won the bid at an amazing high price. Its luxurious style, combined with folk egg art, forms the unique style and popularity of decorative eggs in Europe and America today.

After years of evolution, the egg craft has been gradually improved. Nowadays, people drill holes in eggs and carve exquisite patterns on the surface of eggshells, eventually forming an artistic treasure with high appreciation value-egg carving works of art.

In the world arts and crafts stage, egg culture has a history of one hundred years. Even now, at Easter and Christmas in the west, eggs are auspicious and blessed gifts. In the collection of Russian museums, egg culture accounts for 4%.
