The egg cups are red or silver in color and sold in sets of two for the reasonable price of $13.27. Assuming that eating a boiled egg out of a pretend nest doesn’t remind you too much of the fact that your breakfast was once sitting in a real nest, the bird's nest eggcups from Shapeways are sure to bring some fun to the breakfast table.
