Egg Bird Feeder
BY JIM SCHATZ WITH J SCHATZ STUDIO
The iconic first piece in the J Schatz Birds line — and the work that launched the studio. The Egg Bird Feeder takes the eternal egg form, built in stoneware and finished by hand in a glossy glaze that also keeps squirrels off. Bird food gravity-feeds from the egg into a custom spun aluminum dish below. Originally designed in 2004, named Product of the Year by Fortune that same year, and made in the studio every year since. Available in four colors. Additional custom colors can be made to order.
“This bird feeder puts a fresh façade on a backyard basic.”
