Nacre and ghezyte dolphin jewelry was introduced as an update to the ghezyte chelioboros jewelry quest reward first released at Ebon Gate 2017. At Ebon Gate 2021, the ability to convert the item's appearance and abilities, along with its deity, was made available as part of the quest. It is a self-charging item that has different abilities based on whether one has completed the yearly quest and/or converted to the deity Niima. Similar to the ghezyte chelioboros jewelry, the amount of favor gained for it allows its various upgrades. The first year being 1000 followed by 2000 for the second year. Favor is garnered by doing the various Caligos Isle yearly quest(s). Currently the primary way of doing this is by collecting items that drop mostly from Deep Sea Diving. There is a cost of 250,000 silver to purchase the item from the chest when available on Caligos Isle. Once purchased, the item is attuned to the character that picked it up.

The item can be rotated between four various worn locations via the PROD verb. Those four locations include wrist(bracelet), finger(ring), neck(choker), and ankle(anklet).

The LOOK is: a nacre and ghezyte dolphin bracelet with tiny web-spun sea blue tidal pearls. The SHOW is:

Tiny twisted chelioboros-reminiscent links of ghezyte are overlaid by interlocking pieces of nacre, forming a leaping dolphin. The piece is dotted with tiny, web-spun sea blue tidal pearls inked with filaments of gold netting the entire item with its delicate, glittering framework.
