Last Week for the Big Egg Hunt
This is the last week to search for eggs in the New York Big Egg Hunt before they all move to Rockefeller Center on April 18.
Following are a few of the eggs and their online descriptions:
Carolina Herrera, Egg#042
"Majestic in its stature, the royal blue egg is one of its kind. The delicate broken pieces give the illusion of an egg ready to hatch – a symbol of a splendid new life to come. The broken motif was inspired by the design of the 18th century china from the Manufacture of Saint Cloud, one of the most prestigious manufacturers that produced china for Versailles."
Current price: $2400.00
Zone: Upper East Side
Carter Jones for Jacques Torres, Egg#011
"The egg depicts iconic scenes and landmarks of New York City. Highlights include the Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn Bridge, Empire State Building and Rockefeller Center. Jacques Torres Chocolate was established in DUMBO, Brooklyn and chef Jacques prides himself on creating and manufacturing all of his products in NYC."
Current price: $650.00
Zone: Brooklyn
Laurent Debrunhoff, Egg#201
"Babar's egg had to be festive and celebratory. It was inspired by the Easter Parade in Fred Astaire's film. The parade also serves a design function, because it invites the viewer to walk around the egg.There are elephant angels at the top and children playing games at the bottom to occupy the different planes of the egg and to suggest different levels of joy. "
Current price: $1800.00
Zone: Upper East Side

David Ling, Egg#261
"The egg is such a perfect form so we decided we couldn’t perfect it anymore. We choose to break it instead into geometric parts, slicing, dicing and reassembling to form a reconstructed egg composition."
Current price: $600.00
Zone: Meat Packing District
