A Seance Spirit Reading Room Find
We will, upon the new guardian's request, issue a named Letter of Authenticity with each piece from this estate, complying with the terms set forth to us by the estate's attorney.
This is one of the two hundred and twelve assorted pieces of Thai vermeil and gemstone jewelry that were recovered from a jewelry salesman's sample case sitting on the floor in the storage closet that served her main seance and reading room. These rooms were a commercial endeavor that had a wealthy following and it is where many of the major seances of this estate were conducted. Many, if not all of her associates worked this room, conducting seances, card readings and numerous forms of divination for their clientele. Apparently this was a lucrative endeavor, as it remained active for over six decades.
Her journals list a host of well known psychics, mediums and other celebrities that would make guest appearances and that these events were booked to capacity well in advance.
They also tell us the ring is one of many her Aunt Nadiene had made for her by a Thai jeweler of Chanthaburi beginning in 1956/57. This jeweler had copied a handful of gold and gemstone rings in vermeil, many of which were gifted and inherited by her. While there, she purchased a sizable quantity of jewelry from at least four of the areas jewelers to be sent home for resale to their clients. Often times claiming to cast spells or attach spirits to a selected piece of jewelry at a client's request.~!~
It is not clear if Aunt Nadiene was abandoned by her mother or if the mother died, orphaning the girl, but she was apparently treated and referred to as a family member, indoctrinated along with her "niece" and for many years she was her traveling companion and guardian. Her journals note of Aunt Nadiene's passing in 1966. She also notes of wearing Aunt Nadiene's jewelry, "Connected to her so closely in life, it awakens psychic qualities with a feeling of devotional joy to wear them."Other journal entries allege incidents of Aunt Nadiene, "owl shape shifting," claiming the Great Horned Owl as being her spirit guide or token spirit animal, and because of this, her taking due care in the handling of owls in her bird and reptile ceremonies, not submitting them to the torturous ceremonial deaths many other species endured during these ceremonies.
She also notes of a number of dreams in which a Great Horned Owl wearing her aunt's jewelry would appear to her. They also go into detail of her gazing into her stones (sphere's), to draw upon Aunt Nadiene's power to help her in this life.
