The whole big fat universe in a pocket compass. On the inner lid is an intricately detailed painting of a spiral galaxy. Each star is done by my own hands with a tiny brush. It's a pretty magical little object.

The compass is properly functional, and is a sturdy, durable piece of hardware. It measures 1 1/2" x 1 3/4", and is 5/8" deep when closed. It has a snug hinge, and an indentation for opening with your finger. There is an exterior knob that holds the needle inside still when not in use.

All packages are shipped via USPS with tracking and insurance, and come wrapped in a small kraft box with a ribbon. And lightyears of adventure.
