s promised, here are a few more egg cups. These are on a little shelf in the den, which for some reason, looks crooked in this photo. Top left, Humpty Dumpty, made in England; one of my favorites, the Painter Bunny egg cup, made in Japan. Second shelf, Humpty Dumpty again – this one is quite large; the head comes off and is a salt shaker and the egg nestles in the body. Next to that, a pig ready to dine on an egg – from Tiffany’s. Bottom shelf: Part of a series of Disney egg cups made in 1939 – Doc. (I want more of these, but they are expensive!) Next to that, a little clown with the sweetest face, holding an egg.
I wanted to give you close-ups, but it’s very rainy today and the lighting just wasn’t right.
Happy Saturday.
What a wonderful collection! I have seen a few and have bought a few, but yours are amazing. I love them displayed all together!
What a treasure, especially Humpty Dumpty with the salt shaker. You sure don’t see these often. And the shelf they’re on is pretty darn cute too.
P.S. No books yet.
Good morning Claudia…I have not been over to visit for a few days. I just caught up reading though. LOVE those vintage egg cups. Love the new crochet project too. A scarf?
Have a happy weekend!!!

Treausres indeed. Thanks for sharing. I jove egg cups and we did use them when I was a kid, I remember the egg cups and the top being chopped off and the toast fingers. Those are young memories.
Claudia, I love your egg cup collection. It’s very nice. The lady that was my gaurdian angel used to eat eggs in those cups.. Yikes. I can’t eat eggs that are not fully cooked. Are you getting use to your willow tree being gone yet? I think of you.Our Catalpa is just starting to show signs of blooms. Smiles, Susie(She Junks)
What an unique and wonderful collection, Claudia! They look great on that shelf!~Hugs, Patti

These are so adorable. What a wonderful collection you have. I hope you took advantage of the rainy day to rest up your achy body :)
Been looking at all your egg cups – I have never seen anything like them! Very cool!
Your collection is wonderful!! So cute and pretty!!
God Bless~

These are so sweet, Claudia! You inspired me to get out the small collection of papier mâché eggs I have. Right now they’e clustered in an old sewing basket. (By the way, do you like to read P.D. James? During an interview once she said her love of mystery began as a child: she read about Humpty Dumpty and wondered “Did he fall, or was he pushed?” I thought of that when I saw your Humpty egg cups!) Happy April!
