3. Jade Idol from "Pavor Nocturnus"- Season 2

(Please note that this has been incorrectly listed on ebay as part of Season 3- sorry for confusion.)

This is the actual jade relic that Magnus seeks out in "Pavor Nocturnus" as a cure for her longevity. On contact, it triggers her transport to a nightmarish future.

This piece was hand-crafted specifically for this episode by Vancouver artisans Booth Milton and Maria Erme. Made from urethane, it was build using two elements: a stone base from a Chinese jar, the head sculpted and cast separately, and then both dyed to look like jade. 7.5 inches tall, 2.25 inches wide. Cost $1500 CAD to make. (Live at 4:30pm PT, eBay item #260586765102)
