I have a pnoy mummy eye chalice and I see lots of different mummy eye variations. I was just curious as to what makes a chalice a "mummy eye":squigglemouth:
 
This is what I was told a mummey eye is.

A chalice with a green colored base,with a brightly colored eye with a smooth base with no protruding spikes on the skeleton.
 
Yea i thought that aswell, the exceptions are cornbreds bubble gum monster and tyree's bubble gum monster...but they have red eyes so maybe thats why they were not called mummy eyes??
 
red pink orange...whatever...point is contrasting eyes from the green base.
 
what does cause those spikes? it seems with almost all my chalices have those spikes when they are under stress? maybe i just answered my own question...
