Gossamer Gallery
[Crafts of the Spider, Gossamer Gallery]
Twilit frescoes line the walls, depicting spiders at their craft -- weaving tapestries, hemming garments, and spinning silk into banners that unfurl across shadowed arches. Gossamer threads hung with gaethzen beads drift between carved beams, casting slow-moving shadows across a cobwood shelf swathed in prismatic wildlace. Several dress mannequins stand near a fabric counter, while a cobwood cloak rack anchors the far wall amid the faint stir of silk.
You also see a cobwood door, the wildlace annex and a size chart above the fabric counter.
Obvious exits: south, west.
A size chart above the fabric counter reads:

Wildlace Annex
[Crafts of the Spider, Wildlace Annex]
Woven draperies of wildlace cascade from the rafters, their shifting hues echoing the restless shimmer of the spider crouched at the room's center. Its carapace ripples with color as it feeds on unseen energy, eight eyes glinting in perfect symmetry. Nearby, a graceful widowglass mannequin and a regal araneium mannequin stand beneath the glowing threads, their polished surfaces reflecting fractured bands of color that slide across the floor.
You also see an elder wildling spider, several robed Humans and a prominent cobwood sign scrawled with spidery lettering.
Obvious exits: south.

Fangs and Filigree
[Crafts of the Spider, Fangs and Filigree]
Threads of spidersilk glint along the walls in looping arcs, each anchored by gaethzen beads that sway with subtle motion. A gnarled cobwood jewelry tree stands beside a polished cobwood display, their surfaces gleaming under the shifting light. Nearby, a glass gem case refracts soft color across a spindly brinefang hand adorned with glittering rings, each reflection mingling with the web-lit glow above.
Obvious exits: east.
Assorted Selections
[Crafts of the Spider, Assorted Selections]
Silken webs hang from the ceiling in a loose lattice, their threads gleaming faintly against the dark beams above. Tables and barrels of cobwood line the room, their lacquered surfaces reflecting the subdued glow that seeps through gauzy wall hangings. A faint resinous tang lingers in the air near a cobwood barrel filled with naphtha, where several tomiek hooks glint softly in the filtered light.
Obvious exits: north.
