Set of the five primordial eggs – Ostara & New Beginnings – Early clay eggs in smoke firing

Archaic ritual set made from traditionally fired clay – origin, movement and transformation in the cycle of spring

The eggs, each measuring approximately 6x4cm and weighing a total of 390g, arrive securely packaged in recycled cushioning material.

This set of five primal eggs follows a very ancient language.
A language that doesn't explain, but shows.
In ancient thought, the egg was not an ornament, but a symbol of order, transition, and new beginnings. The five primal eggs draw on this knowledge and translate it into clear, elemental symbols. Each egg represents a fundamental force of becoming.
Shaped from clay and fired using a smoke kiln, each egg bears the traces of fire, earth, and time. No two surfaces are alike. Each piece is unique – still, earthy, present.

Order for Ostara
Place the five eggs in a circle, from left to right:
1. Germ
2nd way
3. Body
4. Border
5. Change
You can place soil, seeds, or a candle in the middle.
This creates a quiet spring ritual for new beginnings, alignment, and conscious transitions.
This set is not a loud statement.
It works through presence – and through memory.
