Description (please don't copy paste into the article proper)

Carved from what must have been a single huge block of perfect crystal, this Icon of the Crystalline Circle rests atop a simple block of hardwood, unmarked and burnished to a high sheen. The ovoid Mirror itself is suspended between a frame formed from two slender crystal fish, each curved as if mid-leap to meet nose to its twin's tailfin. The grace and fluidity of the lines of curvature are such that the fish seem to be in motion, their identical composition and some trick of the light leading to the illusion that as you glance away, in the corner of your vision they leap suddenly counter-clockwise to exchange positions. The Mirror itself however, held between the fish, is the true wonder of this Icon. Its immaculate surface seems to reflect all light tenfold, causing it to blaze like a small sun. The images grasped within it shimmer with the same brilliance and saturation, the colours far richer and more vivid than the unaided mortal eye can see.
