These delicate dancer’s slippers are sewn from supple suede that embraces the foot in elegant, yet durable, comfort. Dove grey silk covers the outside of the slipper, printed with stylised black cog figures. A single, miniscule silver cog, tarnished and pressed with the image of an amaranth, is sewn to the back of each heel.

This pitch cloak is sewn from high-quality black wool overlaid with sumptuous squares of silk brocade and velvet burnt with the subtle, nigh-intangible images of dancing flames. Black silk tassels dangle from hood and hem of cloak, as well as in lengths up the side, bearing small bells of blackened steel that sing out a disturbing tune in minor notes as the cloak shifts and moves. A deep hood of soft, supple wool lined with black velvet sits atop the cloak, casting the face into a deep, enigmatic shadow. The clasp at the front is an interlocking pin of blackened steel – closed, it forms the sign of Ashtorath.

Ebon silk forms this elegant dress, tailored carefully to flatter the female form. Crisp stitches in shoulders and collar delineate a cap collar closed with a single steel gear button. The dress flows open beneath the collar in a fetching window over the bosom, then resumes over the chest and down over the curves to the hip, where the dress flares out, split at both sides to mid-calf. A delicate petticoat of ruffled black lace peeks out on either side of the split, providing a slight and stylish concession to modesty. Tarnished gold print covers the silk of the garment, picking out the blocky forms of interlacing cogs across the bodice and skirt. A delicate grey cog is picked out in silk embroidery on the back of the dress on the left shoulder, depicting an amaranth held within the toothed mechanism.

Delicately tatted silver lace skims the shoulders in two wide straps that frame a modest, elegantly tailored bodice. The fabric curves outwards over the hips into a circle skirt that ends just above the knee. Subtle images are discernible within the ghostly layers of fabric, depicting little girls torturing large, fluffy rabbits. Ribbons of ivory silk tie at the back of the dress, providing a further touch of innocence to the soft, delicate garment.

Layers of brushed ebon silk have been used in the construction of this corset-waisted, tiered bustle skirt. A wide band fits close to the body just below the bust, the back lacing up with velvet ribbon threaded through golden loops shaped as tiny little gears. Lengths of the same velvet ribbon have been run down through matching gear loops for the entire drop of the skirt, one each side of the corset lacing, allowing for the top layer of the skirt to be drawn up into an elegant bustle. The second layer has been treated likewise and hangs slightly lower than the upper layer to create a ruffled, delicate appearance at the front of the skirt and a fuller bustle at the back.

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.

This elegant steel hairpin appears to have been twisted from brushed steel wire, winding it around the central bar in the form of an embellished treble clef. Tiny garnets wink up from along the curve of the treble clef, shining like drops of blood against the dull metal. A tiny, intricate pinion has been engraved upon the tip of the hairpin.

One smooth tendril of ivory bone has been unnaturally twisted and gnarled into knots and curls that fit elegantly into the hair. Each knotwork cradle is inlaid with one subtle moonstone, its milky swirls of grey and white complementing the pure pearlescence of the bone. The pin is hewn to a delicate taper, its edge sharpened just enough to appear ornamentally claw-like. On the underside of the pin is engraved the symbol of a tiny, intricate pinion.

A long strip of platinum has been flattened and separated into four strands and then woven around itself in an intricate knot-work design. The design has then been folded in on itself, into a tiny hairpin, gleaming platinum reflecting and shimmering through a multitude of blue and purple hues. Along the length of the pin are chains, each tiny, delicate strand holding a miniature star-shaped garnet in a deep blood-red. A tiny, intricate pinion has been engraved upon the tip of the hairpin.

Black onyx forms the composition of this collar, carved into two perfect semicircles joined together cunningly by a small platinum hinge. Upon the surface of the onyx, delicate veins of opal seem to grow through the dark stone, glimmering darkly and spreading into an intricate network of tenebrous webs. Amid the opalescent strands, small slivers of pearl have been inlaid, giving the illusion of amaranth petals caught upon the webbing. The back of the collar comes together with a shining platinum clasp in the shape of an open tome, upon which an intricate pinion has been engraved.
