Will a cut pine cone still open up?

I've cut a pine cone in half length-ways, from tip to base, sanded it and oiled it - the grain is beautiful! Anyway, I only did this yesterday and I'm wondering if the pine cone will expand and open up as I think this might ruin the look of it. Couldn't seem to find anything on Google so I thought this would be the best place to ask! Thank you xx

The answer is - 'Perhaps, perhaps not'. Have a look at what Wikipedia has to say, here...

they open in fine weather (to release nuts) and closed in inclement weather - make a good weather vain.
