I think the egg is creative. It's meant to look like the cross-section of an amethyst geode, which is where the amethyst crystals form inside a rock basically. If you were interested in geology as a kid, this was a cool thing to have, because it looks just like a regular rock until it's broken open to show the beautiful crystals inside.
