*What are the advantages of your products over the souvenir products of other producers?
- Unlike the similar products of other producers when patterning the work-piece we do not use stencils, imprints, ready photos or other techniques enabling to speed up patterning and to increase the production output. We use only painter’s hands, brushes and paints. Have a look at our 1000 souvenirs with the same pattern to make sure that none of them is an exact copy of another pattern.
- The egg-shape has been selected knowingly, since this shape enables us to sell our products simultaneously as Easter eggs, New Year toys and simple souvenirs.
- The eggs flat on the bottom so that they can stand on a shelf but they can also be hung as a tree ornament on the Easter or Christmas tree.
- The work-pieces we use are made only from whole, natural timber. All of our products are lacquered by hand three times.
- For cost-saving purposes we do not use expensive packing for each item separately.
- The price range of our items is defined as souvenir price, though they are 100% hand-made items.

*What selling price would you recommend for your souvenirs?
The recommended retail price is $14.00 - $15.00  If your shop is located on a busy spot, for example, in a railway station, airport, or tourist sightseeing spot, then the price may be higher.  But with a higher price do not forget that these souvenir products are implied for sales in large volumes.

*How would you recommend displaying your souvenirs in the shops?
The most efficient method for attracting buyers is to hang several dozens eggs at the eye level. Christmas trees adorned with our eggs look appropriate on the eve of New Year holidays. On the Easter eve you can hang the eggs on an Easter Tree, put them on large dishes and in baskets. The key rule is dense concentration of souvenirs on a small spot. The buyers will be attracted by the inscription  - 100% handmade.  It may be placed just on the price tag or next to it.
