Shop Inventory
(19)A waxed parcel of scones, cured mushrooms and jam. Keeps for a week; the jam hums faintly when opened.
A coil of rope with tiny embroidered teacups along its length. Reliable and a little aromatic.
A short white candle shaped like a tiny tophat. Burns for ~2 hours.
A simple leather pack with a padded pocket sized for a teacup or pocketwatch.
A small tin of crystalline sugar that, when tossed, gives off three soft ticking noises.
A small jar of candied mushrooms and fruit preserved in syrup that ticks faintly. Good on scones.
A jumble of mismatched keys on a ribbon. Some gleam oddly when someone lies nearby.
A delicate teacup painted with tiny, dancing playing-cards around the rim.
A brass striker engraved with a jumping rabbit. Produces spark reliably even in damp tea-houses.
A compact sewing set with a silver thimble stamped with a tiny crown.
A brass pocketwatch whose hands sometimes run backwards for no reason. Engraved: 'Never Late'.
A small box containing 52 hand-painted cards. Each card depicts a scene that looks alive if you stare long enough.
A silvery whistle with a tiny rabbit carved into its mouthpiece.
A flamboyant, slightly threadbare top hat banded with tea-stained ribbon. Feels warm to the touch.
A little vial of pale amber liquid smelling faintly of bergamot. Heals wounds when drunk.
A porcelain vial of concentrated tea. Drink to ease jittering nerves and trembling hands.
A mottled gray-blue cloak with a faint embroidered grin along the hem. The grin moves when nobody is looking.
A small, razor-edged dagger painted with the face of a queen of hearts. Good for paring and stabbing.
Two tiny brass butterflies with painted wings that flutter when wound.

Shop Atmosphere
“The Curious Crumpet & Clockwork Curios sits on a crooked corner where the street bends like a question mark. Shelves lean like gossiping neighbors; teacups hang from hooks and a brass cuckoo punctuates the hour with a polite 'Are you being properly curious?'. Tabitha March-Hatter, a florid human bard who wears a different hat each hour, runs the shop with equal parts recipe and riddle. She will accept gold, gossip, favors, or particularly amusing hats in trade. She insists customers try a complimentary cup of Tick-Tock jam on scones prior to haggling and occasionally hides a 'special' item in plain sight for those who ask the right question (or sing the wrong song). When asked directions she responds in riddles, and when a bargain is struck she pours tea to celebrate, regardless of whose cup it ends up in.”
