TBI's carefully
designed, top quality tin egg is inspired by the priceless original
of Carl Fabergé. It measures 69mm wide by 110mm in length.
TBI's designers
have patterned the inside of the egg with an authentic velvety
red background and gold trellis overlay, in keeping with the originals,
but without attempting to reproduce their wonderful suprise interiors
