>>>reissued as a secret 17th century formula then there is some deception in the ad since it says that no resins are added and that the oil is made according to an early recipe <<<

Like you, I am suspicious of "long lost mediums." How is it that all of the king's scholars and all the king's men never found this gem before? Whenever a working tool is surrounded with romantic prose (lovingly filtered through Rhein Maiden's hair by caring craftspersons who don't pollute and display sensitive cratspersonship) I know that the price just went through the roof and the rare oil that is being sold is snake oil.

With the exception of our Spray Medium, we readily publish exactly what our mediums are composed from and how, if you have a taste for danger, you can make them yourself. Nott one of our mediums is the result of discovering a long-lost manuscript in a language we don't speak (does the maker of the Delft Oil speak Dutch?) even though, in Boston and Cambridge, we have access to some of the greatest research libraries on the planet.

I'd write more but I have to lovingly lubricate a skillet with a secret amount of 100% purest creamery butter from delighted cows who have had their udders tickled and carefully heat it to a secret temperature passed down from the ancient Gnostics (in a book that only I have access to) as I crack a lovingly laid 100% organic hand-rubbed egg from a chicken whose heritage can be traced back to Henry V in order to make my Delft Breakfast.

I remain lovingly and organically yours in antiquity...
