reconstructed with all real, natural elaphant bird egg shell pieces.
this is a fine example of a reconstructed elephant bird egg, a exclusive piece for any decent collection.


Elephant birds are extinct flightless birds belonging to the order Aepyornithiformes that were native to the island of Madagascar. They are thought to have become extinct around 1000 AD, likely as a result of human activity. Elephant birds comprised three species, one in the genus Mullerornis, and two in Aepyornis. Aepyornis maximus is possibly the largest bird to have ever lived, with their eggs being the largest known for any amniote.
