Automated certificates for this service have been sold in Duskruin's The Annex shop. It allows a change in how an item is worn in the inventory.

You analyze the location swatch and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions.

The creator has also provided the following information:

 Your swatch is used to unlock the potential of things held in your other hand or on your person.

 A timeworn location swatch grants the ability to change the worn location of an unscripted, wearable item.

 DETAILS:
   > Armaments and DB items are ineligible, with the exception of greaves.
   > Arm and leg greaves may only swap between the Arms (14) and Legs (15) locations.
   > Containers must be empty at the time of redemption.  Only containers can be processed as a container.
   > Resulting container capacities and item limits cannot be increased (only reduced or removed).
   > Pockets are removed if a container becomes a non-container or is changed to a location that does not
     support containers.
   > The resulting noun is dictated by the new worn location and original item properties.  Only wood and
     metal items can be processed as wood and metal, respectively.
   > Locations with only base and container nouns will change non-leather items to cloth.
   > Non-leather containers, socks, undershirts, and leggings will be changed to cloth.
   > Items lacking a material will be handled as non-metal and be changed to cloth, with the exception of
     greaves, which default to plain metal.
   > The resulting base/long description generally follows "a/an/some <material> <noun>."
   > Wood and metal items that change to cloth will have their material preserved based on the resulting
     noun, such as "<material>-brimmed" for hats.
   > Show descriptions will be removed.
   > Use LOOK        to view the current settings and preview a held item's changes (if applicable).
   > Use TILT        to toggle processing a container as a container.    Currently: Yes
   > Use TURN [to #] to toggle to the next or a specific worn location.  Currently: PIN
   > Use TWIST       to toggle between arm and leg greaves locations.

 You need only RAISE your swatch while holding a compatible item in your other hand or on your person.

 Your swatch may not be altered or changed in any way.


You get no sense of whether or not the swatch may be further lightened.
