I would run or walk by there most mornings in August and they would often be running around with their tiny legs ablur.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is made of stoneware ceramic, nichrome wire (kiln wire) and glazed with various colours of underglaze as well as coloured and clear glaze. As you can see it is a very delicate item (particularly the bird area) , so it should be treated care!!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease Note: this item is considered a “second” quality piece because:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e-the box itself is not quite flat at the bottom so it can rock back and forth if you push it down on the corners \u003c\/strong\u003e(sometimes this can occur in the glaze firing because the clay \"remembers\" how it was dried originally in an uneven way, which then reveals itself in the glaze firing)\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-the lid also \"fits\" the box best in a specific orientation, and if flipped the other way, it still fits but overhangs the box slightly, so it looks best how the box is displayed in the photos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is a “second” item?\u003c\/strong\u003e An item is considered a “second” quality item if it has some small flaw in its finish, that doesn’t affect its use. It could be a fault in the glaze like pinhole (tiny hole) or rough patch\/bubbles in the glaze. It could also be a fault in the actual clay body where there is a hairline crack but it has been glazed over. Usually these flaws are not too noticeable unless you are very closely inspecting the item. These flaws are considered in the pricing of the item and a fair discount is applied to these items! I describe the exact flaws in the item description and include photos that show these flaws as best as I can. Please always inspect the photos before purchasing the item.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Acorn Pots","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55626282139939,"sku":null,"price":138.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0772\/3905\/8723\/files\/DSC07778-285.jpg?v=1790084756","url":"https:\/\/acornpots.com\/products\/tiny-trinket-box-spotted-sandpiper","provider":"Acorn Pots","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
