By evoking the circle of life, an egg conveys a sense of hope and possibility. We can’t think of a better reason to keep one in sight at all times, especially when it’s beautifully hand-turned in gleaming brass. Substantial yet hollow, the egg stays stable thanks to a subtly flattened area and hole on the bottom. Small surface anomalies allude to the artisan production. Place it on a desk or mantel. Gift it to new parents or for any auspicious occasion.

Small surface anomalies allude to the artisan production. Designed by Fourth Street in Australia, each Egg is made individually and by hand in Uttar Pradesh, India. Imperfect-perfect, a forever favorite.

Emma T. ★★★★★

This little brass egg has a satisfying heft that keeps my stack of invoices from sliding off the desk. The hand-turned surface catches the window light in a way that makes the whole workspace feel warmer. Simple thing, but I find myself glancing at it more than I expected.

Jacob E. ★★★★★

Didn't expect the hand-turned texture to be this nice, you can actually feel the ridges where it was shaped. It sits on my desk near the monitor and the warm brass tone catches the afternoon light. Simple thing, but it makes the space feel less sterile.

Steven I. ★★★★★

The heft of this little brass egg caught me off guard the first time I picked it up. It sits on my desk holding down receipts and looks warm and slightly worn where the light hits the hand-turned curve.
