"When we are inclined
To act selfish and blind
In foolish capture
Of mystical treasure...

Keep in mind
You may find
Once the treasure's confined
That the Magic is lost by great measure."

The Mystical Treasure is inspired by childhood’s tragic capture of tiny treasures.

This pedestaled mason jar contains the eternal living dream we all believed.

(using 2 AA batteries, the magnetic handpainted death moth will come to ‘life’ when glass is tapped)
