tiny pinched reflections

A boy sits in the kitchen, feeling the light, soaking it up , imagining himself a light sponge. Never before has he so appreciated the mere sight of common things. The silvery sides of the toaster and its tiny pinched reflections.

What's the meaning of " its tiny pinched reflections"

Thanks so much.
