They are quite spectacular - hand painted or is that the egg painting robot I saw once - either way some great skill!

Those are traditional Romanian Easter eggs - and they are hand painted using beeswax paints. Diferent Romanian historical regions have different colors for the eggs, and different motifs.
It's a traditional craft, and an art, and it it slowly dying nowadays.
A video on how it's done: https://youtu.be/e2mHRP3F6nk
There is a Museum of Painted Eggs, in Moldovita (in Bucovina region, Romania)

My wife and I have a Romanian couple as friends and ex workmates. They are into these as well! They are quite beautiful -- much nicer than the ones we used to "paint" (using clotes dye) when I was a kid.

Cheers,
Norm.
