Hi Guys, how is everyone, I hope you all had merry Christmas and happy new years.

I am looking for an effect, have been for sometime but not actually knowing the name of it has somewhat drastically efected my search :-).

You will guess what it is straght away, so:

I borrow a ring from a spec, the ring dissapears, I then show a walnut, the walnut disapears into a spectators chosen egg from a box of 6, then the egg disapears and you are left with a lemon, cutting your way through lemon you find and egg, breaking the egg you find a nut and cracking the nut you find the ring..

I was curious what is it called and where can I get it from.

Also another effect Ive heard of much more basic, appearing eggs from the mouth, simpy as a little follow on. Any ideas where I can pick this up.

Cheers for any help in advance.

The eggs from mouth trick went a long time where it wasn't being manufactured. I have heard there is someone in America making it again now. Maybe you might have to have one imported. I think it is sold in America here http://www.abra4magic.com/
I don't know if there is anyone in UK selling it, I searched unsuccessfully last year.

Avoid the very cheap version of the trick that you see sold online for about a fiver, it isn't magic at all.

Don't know about that one but Shaxon's "banknote in walnut" in "my kind of magic" p 37 is similar. note disappears, appears in lemon, inside lemon is an egg, inside egg is a walnut inside walnut is an elephant, er, the banknote. I've seen P Daniels do this and I've heard about a performer in covent garden doing it too.
Do you want more details about the working?

If I was going to name it I'd call it ring in walnut.
