{"product_id":"silverplated-whale-money-box-with-base-stopper-silver","title":"Silverplated Whale Money Box with Base Stopper - Silver","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis silverplated money box takes the shape of a plump little whale, with its tail flukes raised behind it and a small fin tucked against each side. The metal body has a bright, mirror-like silver finish that catches the light from every angle, and the face is kept simple, with sculpted eyes and a gently curved mouth that give it a friendly look. A neat coin slot runs along the top of its back. It stands 6.5cm high, 7.7cm wide and 13.3cm deep, a size that sits comfortably on a shelf without taking over.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe think it makes a thoughtful christening gift, and it is just as welcome at a baby shower or as a present for new parents settling in with their new arrival. It suits a baby or toddler up to three years old as a keepsake for their nursery shelf, chest of drawers or bookcase, where the first coins from grandparents and godparents can start to gather. It is a decorative keepsake for the grown-ups to look after, not a toy, so it sits best somewhere out of reach of small hands. Over the years it becomes a little reminder of those early days, long after the coins have gone to the bank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnderneath, a flat grey base panel lets it sit level, and a round black stopper set into it opens to empty the savings, so nothing needs breaking when the time comes to count them. The silver finish is plated over metal, so treat it gently: dust it with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from abrasive cleaners, which can wear a plated surface. A quick buff now and then keeps the shine bright. For gifting, it looks lovely nestled in tissue, and we like adding a note with the date of the christening or the baby's arrival so it carries the occasion with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMetal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSilver\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7.7cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13.3cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.254kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOccasion\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBaby Shower, New Parents, Christening\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow big is the whale money box?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt stands 6.5cm high, 7.7cm wide and 13.3cm deep, so it sits neatly on a nursery shelf or chest of drawers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do you get the coins out of the money box?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA round black stopper is set into the base, so you can open it and empty the savings without breaking anything.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the whale money box made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is made of metal with a bright silver plated finish, giving the whole whale a polished, mirror-like shine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this a good christening gift?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, we think it makes a thoughtful christening gift, and it suits a baby shower or a present for new parents just as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan a baby play with the money box?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a decorative keepsake for the nursery rather than a toy, so we suggest keeping it on a shelf out of reach of small hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow should I look after the silver finish?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDust it with a soft dry cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners, which can wear a plated surface; a gentle buff keeps it bright.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bambino by Juliana","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53461340029195,"sku":"BM378","price":16.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/bm378_01.jpg?v=1792329658","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/silverplated-whale-money-box-with-base-stopper-silver","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
