They have been glazed and fired however they have tiny signs of life and care should be taken not to knock them around. Copper is robust however it is supple.

Ensure this piece is left to sit peacefully somewhere in your home. Store items such as eggs or pop a battery candle inside however always be mindful that it can be misshapen if dropped.
