The Big Egg Hunt, also known as the ''Faberge Big Egg Hunt'', was a 2012 charity fundraising campaign, in aid of Action for Children and Elephant Family, and sponsored by the jeweler Faberge. The two charities backed the largest ever Easter egg hunt, known as ''The Big Egg Hunt'', in London in the Spring of 2012. Around 200 artists, celebrities and designers created and painted meter high fibreglass eggs which were scattered across selected locations around London. Londoners had forty days from 21 February 2012 to locate the various giant eggs around the capital.〔Sinmaz, Emine, ''Evening Standard, Wednesday 18 January 2012'']〕 ==Background== The event followed the Elephant Parade of 2010, organised by Mark Shand and Ruth Powys of Elephant Family, which saw 260 decorated fibreglass elephants installed throughout London. Elephant Parade raised around £4m for elephant related charities through sponsorship and by selling the individual works of art at auction.〔(Jury, Louise, Evening Standard 22 November 2011 ) Retrieved January 2012〕 The top price paid for a decorated elephant was £155,000 for Jack Vettriano's ''The Singing Butler Rides Again''.〔(Allen, Felix, ''Evening Standard'', 1 July 2010 ) Retrieved February 2012〕 Elephant Parade was itself inspired by Cow Parade, which had its beginnings in Switzerland in 1998 but has since spread around the world.
