Guess The Item 🤔

[looker-on]

Finally slept about 3am Thomas. Have you ever suffered from insomnia. Has been my life time curse.

No, not really. My lifetime curses are different. About a year or so ago I noticed that I tended to wake up at 1 or 2am and couldn't sleep again so that I got up and posted again. I realised that I probably went to bed too early from sheer force of habit. So I deliberately decided to go to bed two hours later and that fit the bill.

Vince Wouldn't it be yours since you solved the last one?

I think we wake up earlier as we get older. Maybe we were the ones who did guard duty when we still lived in caves.

New object: not a household item unless you want it to be.

 

[looker-on]

Is it electrical?

Is it large and/or heavy?

Is it functional or decorative?

 

[Vince]

Non-electrical, fairly high density, hopelessly non-functional.

Preferred by one sex?

Good question. I would have to guess slightly myself. Certainly patriachal in history - probably overwhelmingly so. However, this was given to me by my niece, who also likes such things.

Clay figures in the origin of this item, in the sense that it would not exist otherwise.

A figurine or sculpture in the widest sense?

Not in any sense. The item isn't man-made.

Does it come from something that was once living?

 

[Grier]

Is it some sort of precious material like a rare earth, gem stone or a raw precious jewel, ...?

 

[looker-on]

Still up, Terry, at 2 am?

 

[Grier]

Yes just, sleep issues with often only 4 hours a night. I don't like it but it is what it it. i do have tablets I rarely use which do help, a bit.

 

[Richie]

Good questions Thomas, just about covered everything. Terry you go walkabout on my last item?

 

[Richie]

Clay figures in the origin of this item,

So it was made from only clay originally, what material is yours made from today. Succinct answer please.

Not entirely. Clay matrix with inclusions -- originally. Today it is made of mudstone. With inclusions.
