    I'm not sure where these are from, but they are like russian dolls - 3 successively smaller eggs which fit into each other. They look somewhat old or maybe from Eastern Europe somewhere?

      I have a similar egg with an internal label Made in West Germany.
      They probably were made in other places too.
      Aren't they the best vintage Easter thing! I love them and I'm smiling looking at your pics.
