Brown paper packages tied up with string

Brown paper packages tied up with string

I don't know which I love more, the package or what it contains. This came from India bearing fine Indian fountain pens. The package, emblematic of one of my favorite song lyrics, was so lovely I had to photograph it. (Haven't photographed the pens yet... too busy writing with them!)

Package from India

It came all the way from India most expeditiously, and in fine condition.

Sealing wax with string

The Pièce de résistance: this hard wax seal over the string.
