a crown of twisted rhapsodies

Magnificently crafted, this crown is fashioned of a wide band of finely-wrought silver. Meticulously jagged spikes have been drown from the crown’s upper rim, inset with perfect dark sapphire notes scattered about on the etched lines of a musical staff that make a perforated journey across the crown’s tiers. Below the crown’s spires, the metal tarnishes and dulls, bearing home to a second musical staff encircling the crown proper. Notes of dark garnet trail up from the crown’s base, and where they reach the upper staff, sensuous fiends have been depicted slinking among the music’s lines and reaching for the sapphires, as though coercing them to sink among the garnet. Upon one of the crown’s spikes, a tiny, intricate pinion has been engraved.
