"Bezkonechnyk" - Eternity Egg



My own variation on a type of pysanka represented in Elyjiw's Sixty Score of Easter Eggs. This is a folk pysanka whose name means "an ornament without an end" and is really just a giant, continuous meander. 

Elyjiw writes, "Beeekeepers in Ukraine used to place Easter eggs with bezkonechnyk under beehives in the apiary so that their bees may swarm "without end."
