The name of brightly colored Russian eggs?

Question by Bill G: What is the name of those brightly colored Russian eggs?
I’m looking for a type of Russian Easter Egg, they’re small wooden, brightly colored eggs, though I can’t remember the name of them? Anyone know what i’m talking about, and if so, where to find them?

    Look for a Russian store in your area – you may find them there. I don’t know if they have special name other than pained eggs or Easter eggs.

    They are not wooden, they are real but the insides have been blown out.

    They are called Pysanky.
