  "description": "The gift problem nobody admits to\n\nBuying for a father is hard. He has the mug. He has the socks. Ask him what he wants and he says nothing.\n\nOften the thing you want to give him is a sentence, not an object. Something like: you have been the steady one, and I have never said so. That is hard to say out loud.\n\nAn engraved stone has the words on it already, so you do not have to find them in the moment. He can read it in his own time.\n\nWhat this one is\n\nIt is a natural black stone with gold lettering on the face. The message reads:\n\nDad, I love you! To the world you are a father, But to me, you are the world. Thanks for being my ROCK.\n\nA small gold heart sits on each side of the words I love you. The word ROCK is in capitals, which is the joke: the message is written on a rock.\n\nThe listed size is approximately 2.7 to 3.5 inches, with listed item dimensions of 8 cm wide by 2 cm high. It is listed as free-standing, so there is no stand and nothing to put together.\n\nThe design is fixed. The listing calls this the Father's Day version, though the words Father's Day are not on the stone. No names are added and no engraving service is offered.\n\nWhy natural stone varies\n\nThe listing says the stones are natural and come in different appearances, shapes, sizes and weights. One photo shows three stones with the same wording and three different outlines.\n\nSo the stone you receive will not match the main photo exactly. The engraved message and layout are the same. The outline, the surface markings and the exact size differ within the listed range.\n\nThe listing's specification gives the shape as rectangular. Every photo shows a rounded pebble, so go by the photos.\n\nWho it suits\n\nThe message is written from a child to a father. It does not say son or daughter, and the listing describes it as a gift for dad from either.\n\nThe listing suggests it for Father's Day, a birthday or Christmas. Nothing in the wording mentions a date, so it reads the same on any of them.\n\nThe stone says Dad. It suits someone you call Dad. If you call him something else, this is not the right wording.\n\nWhat to check before you order\n\nA few points are worth checking.\n\nThe wording is fixed. Read the full message in the main photo and make sure it is what you want to say. Nothing can be added or changed.\n\nThe size is small. The listing gives approximately 2.7 to 3.5 inches. Some of the lifestyle photos make the stone look larger than that, so go by the listed size.\n\nNo box is listed. The listing gives the included components as none, so plan your own wrapping.\n\nIt is for indoors. The listing names waterproof as a feature, but the listed use is indoor.\n\nWhere to put it\n\nThe listing suggests a mantel, a windowsill, a bookshelf, a desk or a nightstand. It also says the stone is a good size to carry in a pocket.\n\nIt is listed for indoor use, so keep it inside.\n\nOn a polished table, put something soft underneath. Stone dragged across a wood finish can leave a mark.\n\nLooking after it\n\nThe listing gives no care instructions. A soft dry cloth is a sensible way to dust it.\n\nKeep scouring pads and abrasive cleaners away from the gold lettering.\n\nIt is stone, and it can chip if it hits a hard floor. Lift it instead of sliding it, and keep it back from the edge of counters.\n\nPresentation on the day\n\nThe listing gives the included components as none, so plan on it arriving without a gift box. One photo shows the stone in a box lined with raffia. That box is not listed as included, so treat the photo as an idea for presenting it.\n\nA small box, a pouch or a wrap of tissue paper all work.\n\nMost orders arrive within 4 to 7 business days of the order date, so order with time in hand before the occasion.\n\nThe short version\n\nIt is a natural black stone, about 2.7 to 3.5 inches, engraved in gold with a message for dad that ends Thanks for being my ROCK. The wording is fixed and sold as shown. It is listed for indoor use and as free-standing, and the shape of each stone varies.",
