The Lamen and Crystal: Inscribed Magical Implements
A long wand, candles, a circular band and an inscribed disc share a framed page of annotated implements. The lower disc bears a hexagram and the name Michael in Hebrew, while notes identify its relation to the lamen and crystal. The separated objects are arranged as a visual explanation of ceremonial equipment. Their inscriptions and contrasting outlines carry the plate’s structure.
