    I purchased this brass egg two years ago. Someone asked that I posted the wording, well two years later, here it is; still a mystery. Once again, if anyone could assist, I would appreciate it. It opens up and there is a wooden egg inside that is painted as well. *I can't get the pics to post vertically.

      raven3766, Your pictures probably don't orient properly because the CW S&T software doesn't play nicely with all makes and models of digital cameras installed in computing devices, especially some smart phones and tablets.

      Try editing your pictures on your local device, trimming them so that the long sides of the rectangular images are slightly shorter, then edit your post, replacing the current versions with the edited ones. That usually does the trick.

      If you load your postings on your desk computer you should have no problems. It is one of the things CW recommends. Otherwise they may remove those posts that do not esp if there are other problems.

      I loaded it to my desktop, but I will try again. Maybe I am too close, I don't have this problem with my other pics.

      raven3766, I seem vaguely to remember trying to decipher the characters on this (or another similar one), but the font is rather fancy.

      It would take somebody with either a better grasp of Cyrillic or more determination than I have. I'm kind of tired right now from trying to help somebody in Spanish for the last couple of days. };-)

      Here are Russian and Ukrainian keyboards if you want to give it a whirl:
