Item: Necklace Type: Necklaces Org: Wt
Commodities: opal 15 diamond 15 cloudessence 4
Mortal Reviews: Allowed
IMPORTANT: The main noun MUST use one of these: NECKLACE
Appearance:
a chilly snoefaasia orchid necklace
Dropped:
A many-stranded necklace lies tangled in a heap here.
Examined:
Six strands of diamond seed-beads make the base of this necklace. Three of the strands lie close to the wearer's throat while another two dip low, draping over the breastbone and slipping down the back. The final strand wraps loosely around the first five, creating cascades and curves in the way they hang. Five pale blue snoefaasia orchids grace the necklace from the hollow of the wearer's throat to the left shoulder. Surrounding the translucent centre of each flower are five opal petals. Bursts of white and silver dance through each blossom when the light touches them, glittering like hoarfrost. Jagged shards of white opal, cut to resemble icicles and sparkling with refracted colours, tangle in the diamond strands on the right side of the necklace and balance the orchids to ensure the piece rests properly about the wearer's neck. A faint chill and a hint of moisture radiates from the orchids.

Item: Box Type: Musicboxes Org: Para Designer: Eliron

Mortal Reviews: Allowed
Space: 0% Furniture Type: Normal Furnishings
Outdoors: No Container: No Can Have Lock: No
IMPORTANT: The main noun MUST use one of these: BOX, MUSICBOX
Appearance:
a glass and gold lyrebird music box
Dropped:
A glittering glass music box has been left on its side here, in danger of being cracked or shattered.
Examined:
The base of this glass music box is rectangular and just tall enough to contain the golden cylinder and comb within. Gold end caps cover each corner of the box, carved into the shapes of feathers that lie parallel to the box's edges. A small bird's nest of spun gold sits on top of the music box, two glittering glass eggs tucked safely within. A blown glass lyrebird strolls behind the nest, his wings tucked to his sides and his long tail trailing over the edge of the music box. Gold flakes within the glass pick out the lines and edges of the lyrebird's feathers. The metal catches the light and reflects it into the glass, creating a faint glow. Painted gold lyrebird tracks cross the box in front of the nest, too small to belong to the nesting lyrebird. The bird's pose is relaxed, his head cocked expectantly to one side and his beak open, waiting for the turn of the handle to start his song.
