Diana, Princess of Wales,
formerly Lady Diana Frances Spencer
July 1, 1961 - August 31, 1997
These carved emu eggs feature Diana, Princess of Wales, during
different times in her life.
Unfortunately, in real life people don't always live happily
ever after.
#120 Shy Diana
Her romance with Prince Charles, reportedly the worlds most
eligible bachelor, captured the imagination of people worldwide, and was
touted by the press as a "fairy-tale romance". This carved egg
was inspired by those photos of her shyly peeking out from under bangs.
#121 Tiara Diana
On February 24, 1981 it was officially announced that Lady Diana
was to marry The Prince of Wales. Hundreds of thousands of people
lined the route from Buckingham Palace to St. Paul's Cathedral on July
29, 1981 to watch the arrival of Lady Di and the departure of the
Princess of Wales. Among the countries she visited during the
course of her royal duties were Australia, New Zealand, Italy, Brazil,
India, Canada, Nigeria, Cameroon, Indonesia, Spain, France, Portugal,
Japan, the United States and South Korea.
The prince and princess were separated in 1992 and divorced in
1996.
#122 Celebration Diana
We call this carved emu egg "Celebration Diana" because
we celebrate her life. She was our beautiful, fairy-tale
princess. In the course of her brief lifetime she was president or
patron of over 100 charities, though these had been reduced after her
divorce so she could devote more time to her children. Diana,
Princess of Wales died tragically on August 31, 1997
following a car accident in Paris, France. The vehicle in which the
Princess was traveling was involved in a high-speed accident in the
Place de l'Alma underpass in central Paris shortly before midnight on
Saturday, August 30th.
Each of these carved eggs comes with a hand turned wooden egg
stand and can become a personalized gift with an inscription on the
back.
Because of the variations of color and texture inherent in the emu
egg itself, each carved egg will be unique and make a distinctive
addition to any decor or collection. If you are looking for a
"different" housewarming gift, birthday present or other
special occasion gift for a Princess Diana fan, any of these carved eggs
would delight them.
