Etched Emu Eggs
An emu is a large flightless bird that grows to be about six feet tall. Emu eggs are usually about 5 1/2" tall, with a dark green textured surface. The artwork on the eggs is created by etching away the dark surface, using an engraver, revealing the lighter green beneath. The deeper the etching, the whiter the result. This is similar to the process of etching drawings on dark stone as described above. The contents of the egg shell are blown out through a small hole drilled into the bottom of the egg, leaving it hollow.
The Emu Eggs shown on this page are no longer available, though if you see a design you like, Freddi will be happy to create one with a similar image on it for you.

Etched Stone
Verde Antique (dark green stone with light striations), and Absolute Black Granite are the stones typically used by Freddi to create Pet Portraits, Pet Memorials and Wildlife images. Using a hand held electric engraver she draws the animal onto the stone free-hand. The point of the engraver removes the dark polished surface of the stone, bit by bit, revealing the lighter stone beneath. The deeper it is etched, the lighter the result; providing shading and contrast.
