Library in Miniature

 

I'm not sure what the function of this piece of jewellery is: maybe a belt buckle, or a wristwatch with a spring-cover.... I don't know.

However, in a D&D game, this is obviously a portable wizard's library, magically compressed into some kind of little stasis bubble. The wizard could, with the appropriate commands, enlarge it again and free it from its stasis, refer to any of the volumes or items on the shelves, and then shrink it back down again and return it to his pocket or pouch.

I imagine it would be a highly sought-after item for a travelling magician, though with the particular down-side that one's entire library could be stolen by some random pickpocket.
