I originally saw this apple pot from an online sample sale that expired, and I was obsessed with it right away. I love things that are unique and whimsical, and I couldn't stop doing online searches for it. After weeks of surfing, it became clear that Great Offer Stock had the best price and was the most reliable place to order from. The apple must have been packaged in three different boxes. I told my husband that it was like opening a Russian doll. It is very heavy, and the color is so true to the photo. The stem is strong and didn't turn around like another pot I ordered as a gift for my sister, and I couldn't stop looking at it because it looked so cute and animated on top of my table.
