A knot of oak, sanded smooth and sealed in beeswax.
Knit in overlapping rows for a scaled, weatherproof cuff.
Hand-tumbled river stones, each etched with a tiny scale mark.
Thorn-and-blossom embroidery along every edge.
Slow-burning beeswax, poured in small batches.
A little round door, carved to hang by any threshold.
Soft-lined and small enough to disappear in a pocket.
A brooding signet, cast with a thorned nightshade bloom.
A hinged locket cast in blackened pewter, lined in deep violet silk.
Carved to the likeness of a raven's skull, dark-stained and silver-veined.
Hand-forged pewter, cast from a carved wax original.
A deep-hooded cloak cut for long roads and short folk alike.
Thick-heeled socks built to outlast the journey.
