OSTRICH EGGS - Beauty in Every Shell
WHAT MAKES OUR OSTRICH EGGS UNIQUE?
When you think of ostriches, images of their impressive size and exotic presence may come to mind. Native to South Africa, these majestic, flightless birds are renowned not only for their premium leather and feathers but also for something truly unique: their eggs.
Ostrich eggs are some of Africa’s finest examples of natural beauty and are Leo & Stripes’ signature element. We have reinvented traditional ostrich egg décor, transforming these shells into contemporary, safari-chic statement pieces that blend effortless luxury with minimalist design.
NATURE’S ELEGANCE
Ostrich eggs are the largest in the world, with each one roughly the size of 24 hen's eggs. A single female ostrich can lay between 40 and 120 eggs per season, no two are ever the same.
These eggshells, with their cream tones and organic shapes, are canvases shaped by nature itself. Variations in colour, texture, size and form make each egg truly one-of-a-kind.
At Leo & Stripes, we meticulously hand-select every eggshell, ensuring that only the most beautiful and distinctive ones are included in our collection. At the same time, we celebrate the perfect imperfections that give each eggshell its own unique character. This diligent curation highlights their natural elegance while transforming them into décor that is as distinctive as it is sophisticated.
