100 Real Natural Acorns Mixed Lot of 4 Types - Dried for Crafts!These acorns come from a number of trees in southern California and were hand gathered off the ground in the fall and winter of 2021/22. They were rinsed in plain water, air dried and any with obvious grub holes, nicks, or splits, were removed. There are 4 types of acorns (25 of each) and sizes within each type vary, but a general size is shown for each type.
California Black Oak (quercus kelloggii): These are the largest ones - oblong shaped in a medium to light brown color with some "striping" along the sides and maybe some ivory-colored fuzz still attached. These have a pointed tip at the bottom and a lighter brown spot on top where the cap was attached. Their size is about 3/4 inch wide and 1 inch tall.
Pin Oak (quercus palustris): These are the smaller roundish ones - similar to a hazelnut in size and color. Their size is about 1/2 wide and 1/2 inch tall and medium to light brown in color with "striping" along the sides; some of these are a light gray in color.
Scrub Oak (quercus berberidifolia): These acorns are slightly elongated with a dark brown bottom and lighter brown top half. Their size is about 1/2 inch wide and 3/4 inch tall and I detect a slight odor with these that isn't unpleasant and may disappear as they continue to age.
California Live Oak (quercus agrifolia): These are the long slender acorns in a medium to light brown color with a pointed tip and some "striping" along the sides. Their size is about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 inches tall and 1/2 inch wide; some of them have a slight curve.
You will receive acorns similar to those shown in the pictures (25 plus a couple extras of each). These are just acorns, no caps and they are excellent as bowl filler, decor or for use in many crafts. These acorns are dried and not suitable for planting but may be useful as feed for some animals. They come from a smoke-free environment and will be shipped in a cushioned envelope via USPS First Class Package.
Note: These items are described and photographed as accurately as possible, but please message me with any questions you may have. They are sold as-is with no return and I don’t profit on the shipping; the calculated shipping costs you see include all eBay discounts. I charge a handling charge per listing to help cover the cost of boxes, envelopes and packing materials. I ship same or next day, if possible, but list as shipping within 2 days due to sporadic required overnight travel. Sales tax will be added to your purchase as laws require.
