Decorative Lion Automata (artifact)
A stunning example of the lost Kartharaddi craft, this elegant but heavy contraption stands at shoulder height. It seems to have been designed as some kind of secure storage case for jewelry, which its brass claws delicately sort into various cleverly hidden cavities sequestered around its body. The entire contraption is controlled by twisting and pulling upon a series of levers jutting from its base. A godsend for anyone with a collection of jewelry too large to keep track of, but of limited use for anyone else. Fragmentary records suggest these were made for use by Kartharaddi Magi, though for what purpose exactly is still unclear.
