Eye of Isis. Middlesex: Alan Warner, ca. 1990s. A blank slate is displayed inside an ornate sarcophagus; the lid is replaced, and a spectator is asked to stare at the box. When the lid is removed a second time, the tablet contains the “Eye of Isis.” The lid is replaced and opened a third time, finally revealing a hieroglyphic phrase. Teak construction with stone set into lid, inlay along base and metal feet. 6 x 2 ½ x 2 ¾”. Includes instructions. Very good.
