B'samim Box

An antique besamim box in the shape of a fish used in the Havdallah service... Made of the finest handcrafted silver, the ))scales(( are rendered in intricate detail. The tail of the fish forms the tower... The silver bell hanging from the tail +jingles+ as the besamim box is passed around. If you slide open the 'breathing gill' near the base you will see the compartment for the sweet spices. This box contains ^cloves^. You sense the pungent ~fragrance~ as you hold the box. "May the sweetness of these spices prevail in the coming days, months and years..."
