A (probably incomplete) listing of various props and such found at the different events as part of the A Twist of Taessaet storyline.

March 19th: Library Visit

a small cedar chest

l my chest
The small cedar chest is lined with soft red velvet.  Extra pieces of cedar are placed at strategic locations across the inside to assist in the preservation of the chest's contents, and a small label is affixed to the exterior.
There appears to be something written on it.
>read my chest
In the Elven language, it reads:
Archival Remnants from Couturier Quarters
>l in my chest
In the cedar chest you see a tattered leather book cover, a sheaf of preserved papers, a piece of aged parchment, a leather ledger and a quill-stamped scroll. 

a tattered leather book cover

 l my cover
The pages within have crumbled, leaving only a tattered leather book cover.  Remnants of gold foil can be seen within the stamped titling on the spine.
There appears to be something written on it.
>read my cov
In the Elven language, it reads:
Collected Lectures of Ta'Illistim's First Couturiers -- The Early Years

a sheaf of preserved papers

 l my papers
Attempts at preservation have kept the papers intact, but the contents appear to have been lost to the ravages of time as the ink has faded almost completely.  The only legible words are the title, which appears to have been traced over multiple times in long-lasting inks.
There appears to be something written on it.
>read my papers
In the Elven language, it reads:
Fashions of the Argentate:  The Court of Ananaon Illistim and Its Clothing </nowki>

''a piece of aged parchment''<br>
 <nowiki> l my parch
Faded ink covers the aged parchment, most of it illegible.  A few words are visible here and there.
There appears to be something written on it.
>read my parch
In the Elven language, it reads:
Elesine may... ask the g... breakth... 

a leather ledger

 l my led
The small leather ledger is old but well-preserved; it is stamped with gold lettering reading, "Kivaera Astielern, Accounts of the First Couturier."  A quick glance through the interior shows numerous rows and columns of numbers and nothing else. 

a quill-stamped scroll

 l my scrol
The scroll is aged with faded ink and several tea stains.
There appears to be something written on it.
>read my scrol
In the Elven language, it reads:
Loremaster, I am sending a bolt of taessaet for your archives.  I am working on collecting my personal notes into a comprehensive treatise.  It is a most unusual method of fabric creation.  My time apprenticing in Ta'Nalfein...  We are close but lacking... Sincerely, First Couturier Kivaera 

March 24th: First Couturier Storeroom Visit

[The First Couturier's Storage]

Lily-shaped sconces are obscured by ceiling-high stacks of stamped crates, the overflowing containers filled with various paraphernalia.  A lone leather-backed chair sits buried beside pewter-riveted trunks, the clutter-filled containers covered by lengths of silk draped across a grouping of mannequins nestled against the back wall.   Room-length shelves occupy the available space along the walls, leaving enough space for a series of sealed chests to serve as makeshift tables.
Obvious exits: out 

A peahen-stamped crate:

 l crate
A light wash of silver lacquer covers the individual crates, the interior lined by panels of pavonated leather.  The sides are stamped in a stylized peacock motif, their plumage painted in vibrant jewel tones that splash down into a curtain of colorful speckles.
>l in crate
In the peahen-stamped crate you see a folded sapphire vellum sheet and a bolt of silk brocade.

l brocade in crate
The embroidery across the brocade is uneven and asymmetric, leaving stray stitches across the edging.  A small tag attached to the side reads, "For your stitching lessons. - C"
>l in brocade in crate
In the silk brocade you see a ribbon-looped electrum ring.

The simple ring is a hammered strip of electrum, devoid of ornamentation save for a line of calligraphy etched into the inner surface.
There appears to be something written on it.

a pewter-riveted trunk

l trunk
A faint trail of scuff marks mars the gentian leather framework of each rectangular trunk, the pewter rivets reinforcing the edges providing space of bits of brittle cobwebs.  Sticking out from the containers are bundles of fabric, their surfaces veiled in a thin layer of dust.
>l in trunk
In the pewter-riveted trunk you see a scrap of brittle ecru paper, a pressed naefira petal and a pressed beleria petal.
