Black Mara is a great Russian ambient / drone label with super elaborate packaging, usually sealed with a wax stamp.

The one I bought from them even came with a leather bound scroll.

Incase you use spotify, you might like this playlist. It's in line with my slumbr work and serves as a heavily vetted playlist of deep & sleepy ambient music. It's been in the works and listened to for several years and as such,  I've recently found myself just as likely to remove something as add it. So far 15 random strangers are subscribing and it's slowly growing.
