Salt & Iron Pinch Box

Salt & Iron Pinch Box is a two-chamber tin that dispenses coarse black salt from one side and soft iron filings from the other. The thumb slides are ridged differently, so a user can choose by touch while watching whatever has begun moving in the mirror. Each chamber carries ten defensive pinches. Moisture cakes the salt; magnetic fields bunch the iron. The box costs twenty-eight credits because Ninth Sign tests the contents against actual manifestations instead of trusting a wholesaler with excellent stationery. The listed 28 credits covers the item as shown, not bespoke consecration, licensing, or the clerk's suddenly expensive professional concern.
