I think the enamel is absolutely convincing and the eggs are just great -


What bothers me is the visibility of the HDRI map in the camera view,
for me this completely destroys the illusion and that kitchen probe
is much overused anyway. How about e.g. the "Mausoleum Foyer"
probe from http://www.unparent.com/photos_probes.html

How about reducing the diffuse value of gold? Looks too dull/whiteish to me.
