My 1st eBay item

This is my 1st ebay listing of 10 acorns
>>>>HERE<<<<

Oakdale Studios present;


A 22k Gold plated real Acorn
 
Plucked from the shadows of The Major Oak deep in the Heart of Sherwood Forest
& from under the ghostly footsteps of the legendary
Robin Hood & his Merry Men.
~~~~~~~~
This is a genuine Sherwood Forest acorn hand selected from the 2011 harvest.
Each acorn comes with a certificate scroll confirming that
they are hand picked from within a 5 mile radius of The Major Oak & Parliament Oak trees.
~~~~~~~~
The annual harvest has a limited availability due to the short growing & ripening seasons &
the speed that the Squirrels gather & bury them. I am listing these in batches of ten
so when they've gone, they've gone.
~~~~~~~~
Their uniqueness means two will never be the same in both size and shape.
An average size is around 25mm in length x 15mm in diameter.
As with all handmade & hand crafted items, the texture & colours may slightly differ,
this is due to variables in the processes we use such as times & ambient temperatures but we do keep an
eye out for sub-standard finnishes before they are packed & dispatched.
~~~~~~~~
Inspired by nature, this is a reminder of Sherwood Forest, The Major Oak tree & of Robin Hood.
It would compliment your visit to Robin Hood Country or make an ideal gift or memento of Nottinghamshire.
~~~~~~~~
The acorns are electroformed in copper, nickel plated & eventually encased with 22k Gold
to preserve their unique & natural beauty for years to come.
Please note that due to the process the acorn is dead & will not grow into a Mighty Oak.
~~~~~~~~
Please remember that any item that is Gold plated & not solid gold will possibly scratch
& wear out by attaching it to a keyring etc. 

The photo is one of the acorns I have Gold plated but will not necessarily be the one you buy.
~~~~~~~~
WARNING: These products DO contain nuts
& their uniqueness means that the size, weight & shape will always vary.
~~~~~~~~
This product was hand crafted by me, with pride at the Oakdale Studios, deep in the Heart of Sherwood Forest, Nottinghamshire, England.
