Description: I usually list these giant burr acorns in sets of 3 or 4, but I had a smaller one so I added it to this set to make a group of FIVE! The Burr Oak tree only produces acorns about every FOUR years. Perhaps that's because the acorns it produces are HUGE in comparison to all other acorns. I have two of them that I gather from (when they're producing). In order to prepare these acorns properly, I roast them in the oven for a short time and then allow them to dry naturally for many months. The shell has to dry COMPLETELY before I can work on them the way I need to. NO TWO ever look exactly alike by the time I get done with them. The variation in colors that you see are ALL natural. I've not used ANY colors or dyes on them. This is just mother nature doing her thing! I do take them apart and completely clean and buff the large nuts before trimming up the edges of the cup and then placing them back in. I glue them so that there will be NO movement. I then provide SEVERAL layers of clear coat. This ensures that they will never fade, chip, peel, mold etc. The finished product is just gorgeous. AND you can use them indoors OR out. Please note that sometimes you will see a slight split, hole or flaw. These are thoroughly cleaned, and then sealed so they do NOT and will NEVER have a bug in them. It's just that it takes the acorns so long to fall that they will form slight flaws. I pick the best ones and then file any flaws down before cleaning and sealing them. Each were HAND picked, HAND inspected and HAND prepared by me. Use them for bowl fillers, wreaths, accents, decorations, etc. The biggest one is 2 1/4" wide x 1 7/8" tall. The next two are 2" wide x 1 1/2" tall. Next is 1 7/8" wide by 1 3/8" tall. The smallest one is 1 5/8" wide x 1 1/2" tall.
