1. Turn the handle gently and let this chaotic oracle unveil your fortune.
2. Tokens are random
a. If the token tumbles to the floor, anticipate the opposite of your fate.
b. Should it glide gracefully through the slide, consider it your luckiest day. It may be a good idea to get a lotto ticket.
c. In the event of multiple tokens dropping through the process, choose one and return the rest to the spheric vase on the side.
3. Ensure all tokens given by the oracle are deposited into the adjacent spheric vase, you mustn’t keep the message. Do not tempt your fortune by taking them home.

Sometimes, things don't go as planned, and that's when true creativity shines. This illuminated lantern is the beautiful result of embracing the twists and turns of our artistic journey. What initially began as a different vision has evolved into a brilliant collaboration. This partnership with art serves as a powerful reminder that we aren't always in control; instead, art becomes the guiding light, leading us to remarkable outcomes.
Erica Soria, an alchemist of elements with a decade-long journey in clay, draws inspiration from the interplay of light and shadows. She shapes stoneware and terracotta into functional art, capturing the magic of dreams, nature and human interaction.
Tomas Otamendi describes himself as a jack of all trades with a solid grounding in editing and storytelling. He has a curious and inquisitive mind that pushes him to stick his nose in unusual places with usually good results.
