A decorative image raises the [[value]] of an object by adding another material to the base item. Decorations have quality levels. The base value of a decoration is 10☼, multiplied by its [[Item_value#Material_Multipliers|material multiplier]] and [[Quality|quality multiplier]] that are separate from the item itself. | A decorative image raises the [[value]] of an object by adding another material to the base item.

The type of decoration, be it spikes, bands, or pictures, may affect the value of the item as perceived by other civilizations - [[elf]] caravans, for example, ignore spikes when trading for your goods. Highly skilled decorators will often create a picture of something special, like an artifact, or even parts of your history, similar to [[engraving]] a natural wall or floor. | The type of decoration, be it spikes, bands, or pictures, may affect the value of the item as perceived by other civilizations - [[elf]] caravans, for example, ignore spikes when trading for your goods.

When built as restraints (for decorated ropes), or as [[container]]s (for decorated [[bag]]s), dwarves can gain happy [[thought]]s by admiring them, so they can function as makeshift tapestries. If you build unowned bags, however, make sure to {{k|f}}orbid them afterwards or your Dwarves will constantly perform the "Check Chest" job on them. |
