My Second Favorite Object

...a mirror. The illusions you can create with them far exceed what you can do with a picture or what have you. I have a very narrow Japanese mirror in the bedroom, which gives the most extraordinary illusion of depth. And I just put up a perfectly circular one in the living room. When you have a small house they're essential.

Of course if I was a bit more Taoist I'd put a mirror up above the front door. That way if a passing demon were to see its face, it would be terrified and leave.
