“Brain Fog” handmade glimmer jar

Found in the depths of Llanbadarn Afreal Community College, these cerebral specimens are surrounded by a colourful glimmering powder: perhaps as part of the preservation process, or simply decorative.

Possibly both.

In any case, our research associates have noted an increased feeling of calm when shaking the jars and watching the swirling liquid until it slows and eventually settles, and we would like to share that feeling with you!

Just don’t let the things loose: all the shaking might have upset them slightly.
