The Vessel Incomplete

Effect
A ceramic urn that appears unfinished - smooth surface, unpainted, as though the maker stopped. Objects placed inside are held in a stable liminal state between Material and Ethereal indefinitely. Objects do not age, decay, or interact with the physical world. Cannot be found by magical searching while inside. Retrieving requires speaking the object's name aloud while reaching in. Holds up to 5 objects simultaneously, each no larger than a human head.
Uses
Permanent. 5-object capacity.

About

The maker stopped because they did not know how to finish the glaze. The unfinished quality turned out to be the functional component. A complete vessel would have contained things in Material reality. The incomplete one contains them in the space between.
