Apple tree Volker Kraft wore a total of 18 eggs, when he first graced it for Easter. Decades later, a strong tree is festooned with 9,800 eggs, artfully decorated with everything from beads to seashells.
Decking trees hollowed out, painted eggs at Easter is popular in Germany, but also the creation of 75-year-old retiree has become something special. Last year, it drew 13,000 visitors.
Kraft needs two weeks and countless trips up and down the stairs to hang him eggs.
The task became a little harder every year since Kraft began his jewelry in 1965. He started with the plastic eggs, and then moved on to real eggs painted with his three children.
In these days of Kraft's wife, Krista, designs many of the most exotic jewelry - knitting egg packing on long winter evenings.
