    This was perfect as a little “surprise” in the Christmas stocking! The pieces weren’t too big or small and after I washed them off in warm water were perfect and shiny!!

    Bought this as a reminder of when my Grandmother still had coal furnance and coal stove in her kitchen that also heated the water for washing and baths.

    You'll get six pieces, but expect a few tiny ones.

    the former delivery was 16 pieces, the last one is 6 pieces. In the catalog picture, it says 6 pk, which would mean 6 packages, delivered was only one with 6 pieces. The least very unclear what is included in the delivery.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Very small amount
    Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2023
    This item came in a small plastic bag with the 6 small pieces enclosed. I didn't read the description like I should have when it said 1" pieces. I expected more for the money. I needed some for my son's W. VA class project and wanted to have some in a basket as a mining prop. I ended up returning this item and found another listing for $5 more and about 8x as much. Shipping was fast, though, and if you need about a palm sized amount this would be fine for you.
