Sold at Ebon Gate's Antiquarian Manor, Antiquarian's Apparatus can store rare materials, colloquially called alter fodder.

LOOK
|
Surrounded in complex copper gears, the apparatus is a mechanical marvel. Blue encircles the exterior as well as the tiny cubbies that are visible beyond a pane of lead-reinforced glass. Despite the metallic reinforcements, the pane is quite translucent, allowing for a view of the cubbies beyond. Within them, you see:
1. a nodule of snow jade (10 pieces)
2. a piece of celestial agate (10 pieces)
3. a delicate zelfyr bead (10 pieces)
4. a twisted branch of wyrwood (1 piece)

PLUCK
|
Twisting one of the copper gears on the side of your storage apparatus, you wait for the opening process to complete before plucking a [ALTER FODDER] from its confines. A moment later, the protective glass slides back into place and the gears still.
You realize this is the last of its kind in your storage apparatus. (if removal reduces count below 1)

|
PUT
|
Twisting one of the copper gears, you wait as the apparatus shifts and whirs through its opening process and then deposit [ALTER FODDER] into its blue suede-lined confines. A moment later, the telltale sounds of the apparatus closing fill the air.

You whisper under your breath how you'd like to have [ALTER FODDER] ready to be retrieved, and you suddenly notice that the [ALTER FODDER NOUN] seems to be in a better position for quick plucking.
