* Ancient Egypt: Glassblowing techniques emerged around 3000 BC, and Egyptians likely created glass eggs for decorative purposes even then.

* Medieval Europe: Glass eggs were sometimes used in religious ceremonies, symbolizing rebirth and new life.

* 19th-Century Europe: Glass eggs became popular decorative items, particularly in France and Russia. The famous Fabergé eggs, created for the Russian Tsars, are the most exquisite examples from this era.
