  • Iconic jewellery brand Fabergé has released designs for a new Game of Thrones-inspired egg worth a staggering £1.6million ($2.2million) - and you’ll probably need a loan from the Iron Bank if you want to buy it.
    It might not contain a real-life dragon, but the stunning ‘commemorative egg objet’ from Fabergé’s head designer, Liisa Tallgren, draws inspiration from the hit HBO series.
    Liisa has collaborated with Game of Thrones’ costume designer Michele Clapton to create ‘an intricate and enchanting design that tells the tale of Daenerys Targaryen’s quest to take her place on the Iron Throne.’
    The newly-released designs for the egg features a purple and silver exterior and is finished with diamonds, while the inside features a miniature dragon and a crown.
    ‘The design references Daenerys Targaryen’s incredible journey and the importance of colour within her costumes, her passion for her dragons, and the way she portrayed messages via her jewellery throughout her journey on the show.
    ‘References from the textures of the dragons and their iconic eggs were used to inform the surfaces of this egg objet.’
    Speaking about the ruby-encrusted inside of the egg, Michele said: ‘I knew instantly what the secret gift should be, there was never a doubt; it had to be the crown that Daenerys believed throughout her life was her destiny.’

    The Game of Thrones Egg was incredible! I'm so glad that they kept its 'surprise' nice and simple. If only a range of jewellery and other matching items were made to go along with it that the public could actually afford. Celtic designs are quite popular, as was the Series and they would have done well to have considered it. Well, I wouldn't mind seeing this particular Faberge Egg under my Christmas tree on Saturday morning. Thanks for another informative video Andrew. I do hope that you're not working on Christmas and finally get a chance to relax. It's forecast to be 35°celsius here and I'm not looking forward to it at all. Looks like lots of drinking will be in order! Just as well my bottle of champagne has been starting to chill. Cheers my friend and have a lovely day, Kris.🇦🇺🥰🎄🎁💖🥂🍾

    It's been said that when something ceases to be rare, it ceases to be special. The original eggs were created for a very select group of people. This egg, while beautiful in its own right, seems to have bridged into the masses and in the grand scheme of things, I find it difficult to conceive why Faberge would do this. This egg seems to be a sellout to commercialism, which rarely hits the mark for being special.

    Whom Can We Trust If No One Is Trustworthy?
    One of my favorite quips from Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is when Tom is defined as “a glittering hero…the pet of the old, the envy of the young,” and there were “some that believed that he would be President, yet, if he escaped hanging.” With these few words, Twain captured the essence of leadership in our world. Those who get to the top are the fiercest, most determined, and most ruthless. Today, the latter quality has become so intense that we can no longer believe our leaders, and certainly not trust them to have our best interest in mind.
    I am not accusing any leader in particular, or even leaders as a whole. It is simply that in an egoistic world, where people vie to topple one another on their way to the top, the one at the top is clearly the one who trampled over and knocked down more people than anyone else. Concisely, to get to the top in an egoistic world you have to be the biggest egoist.
    So how do we know whom to trust? We don’t know and we cannot know. All we know is that we are in the dark.
    In a culture of unhinged selfishness, any conspiracy theory seems reasonable, while truth is nowhere to be found. When every person who says or writes something is trying to promote some hidden agenda, you have no way of knowing who is right, what really happened, or if anything happened at all.
    The only way to get some clarity in the news and goodwill from our leaders is to say “Enough!” to our current system and build something entirely independent. The guiding principle of such a system should be “information only,” no commentary. Commentary means that information has already been skewed. Information means saying only what happened, as much as possible, not why, and not who is to blame and who we should praise.
    Concurrently, we must begin a comprehensive process of self-teaching. We have to know not only what is happening, but why we skew and distort everything. In other words, we have to know about human nature and how it inherently presents matters according to its own subjective view, which caters to one’s own interest. To “clear” ourselves from that deformity, we must learn how to rise above our personal interest and develop an equally favorable attitude toward others. This is our only guarantee that our interpretation of things will be even and correct.
    Once we achieve such an attitude, we will discover that the bad things we see in our world reflect our own, internal wickedness. Our ill-will toward others creates a world where ill-will governs, and so the world is filled with wickedness and cruelty. Therefore, all we need in order to create positive leadership-and to generally eliminate ill-will from the world-is to generate goodwill within us. When we nurture goodwill toward others, we will fill the world with goodwill. As a result, the world will fill with kindness and compassion. By changing ourselves, we will create a world that is opposite from the world we have created through our desires to govern, patronize, and often destroy other people.

    And if you buy it, Faberge will ship it to you in a garbage bag they call “Season 8”.
