I bought this today for $1.60 at the ARC. It is a ceramic box the size of a cantaloupe. It reminds me of an equally strange lamp that my mother has. I saw it and I just wanted it. I have a feeling that people are going to think it's very strange, which, quite frankly, it is. For some reason I need to show it to you out there in Blogland, I suppose because I've never seen anything quite like it, have you?
