Beautiful new thing!

Love the design! love the arrival timing (in time to include in my outfit for Steampunk Circus tonight). Not so fond of the brass case, which arrived seriously dirty. I've given it a good rubbing with tissues, should get to it with polish I suppose. Leaves one's fingers smelling brassy and will likely leave marks on clothes. Mayhap I should just think of it as industrial grime adding to the steampunk verisimilitude or some such.

love that it is proper wind up clockwork! however it doesn't feel like a quality mechanism. Ah well.




Bonus:



gorgeous label on the packaging
