The Easter table is not complete without the Easter lamb.  Ours are made of plaster and nicely detailed.  Below is an explanation of this Polish custom.

Easter Lamb (Baranek wielkanocny): Made of butter or sugar (rock candy), but also of dough, wood, plaster, fleece or even plastic, the lamb with a usually wields a red banner of Resurrection emblazoned with a gold cross (although other colors are also encountered). It should go into the basket last, because in effect it watches over the rest of the ingredients. The Baranek symbolizes the sacrificial Paschal lamb, in other words Jesus himself, whose banner proclaims His victory of life over death.
