So, I've been looking for an artifact that allows communication with the dead (in a sense), and it took me some time, but I believe I've found a good origin (Mary Todd Lincoln), I just need advice on which object and version of the effects I should go for.

The first idea is that the artifact functions like a phonograph or ghost box, allowing the voices of discarnate entities (entities without bodies; so, even if "ghosts" don't exist, it can still work with people who's minds/souls were separated from their boides in some fashion) to speak through it. Thing is, I just don't have an object for it.

The second idea for the effects is that use of the artifact allows those such entities to speak through the user, acting as a sort of medium. I just don't know which object to use, a piece of one of her famous china sets (most likely either the Presidental "Solferino" set or her personal, post-Abraham assassination "Pink" set), likely a cup (can't find a decent picture of any goblet/chalice like cups from any sets, unfortunately); OR a pair of gloves, of which she was known to have perchased somewhere between 3-400 (because at the time, gloves were to be worn for many occassions, not reworn often I believe, and dirtied gloves could not be laundered and were instead discarded, so such a large number was an approximate 7 month supply). So either drinking from the cup or wearing a glove allows the user to become a psychic medium of sorts.

Which idea do you guys prefer? And which object? If you have something for the first, please feel free to suggest something.
