Its note

Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 300.5 Hz, 40 cents sharp of D4. The next fifteen are its overtones, and each one draws its own figure: sand gathers on the lines that stay still.

About it

A treasure chest is a strong wooden box with metal bands, a heavy lid and a lock, made to keep coins, jewels and other precious things safe. Long ago, before banks were common, people kept their valuables in chests like this, and ships carried money and goods in them.

Tap it to open the lid and see the heap of gold coins and bright jewels inside, and tap again to close it. Pick the color of the wood in the Splash tab. With ✋ Hands-on on, lift the lid on its hinge yourself: let go past upright and it stays open; lower, it drops shut with a thud.
