Analyze

You analyze your sorrel leather hat and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions.

The creator has also provided the following information:

This item is designed to display a gem or feather.  The hat has three distinct descriptions, one when empty, a second when a gem is inserted, and a third when a feather is inserted.  To insert an item, hold the hat in one hand, the item you'd like to insert in the opposite hand and PUSH hat.  PULLing the hat will remove the hairpiece and restore the hat to its empty description.  It has never been unlocked, but could be by a qualified merchant.

When worn, it will temporarily alter your hairstyle and supports up to three custom hairstyles in addition to the default setting.

To change between the available hairstyles, hold the item in your hands and TURN it.

When altering these items there is some important information to keep in mind.  First, this item belongs to the HAT group and may only be altered in one of the following nouns: Hat, Cap, Tricorn, Tricorne, and Capotain.  And while each side is highly customizable, both the noun and material do need to remain the same for all three sides.

You can tell that the hat is as light as it can get.
