I don't know if those eggs are made with true indigo :( But here (pic) is an egg described as made with only natural dyes, indigo, lac, etc.
The clay/indigo is called Maya Blue,
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maya_blue"The Maya blue pigment is a composite of organic and inorganic constituents, primarily indigo dyes derived from the leaves of añil (Indigofera suffruticosa) plants combined with palygorskite, a natural clay ... Despite time and the harsh weathering conditions, paintings colored by Maya blue have not faded over time. More remarkably, the color has resisted chemical solvents and acids such as nitric acid. " It's supposed to be very bright!
I hope sometime I can try to grow woad, but I heard it takes a lot of space and very rich soil, both are in short supply in my yard though. Thanks for sharing your project!
