A decorative image raises the value of an object by adding another material to the base item. Decorations have quality levels. The base value of a decoration is 10☼, multiplied by its material multiplier and quality multiplier.

An object may be decorated with any number of materials, provided the materials are of different types. For example, you can decorate an object with turtle shell and cave lobster shell, but you can't decorate it with turtle shell twice.

You cannot specify an specific object for a dwarf to decorate. Dwarves will use the closest object that has not already been decorated with the material they intend to decorate the next object with. The exception is when encrusting something with gems, where you are able to specify a category of goods to be decorated.

Bone, Shell
Objects can be decorated with bone or shell at a craftdwarf's workshop. Requires bone carving.
Gem
Objects can be encrusted with cut gems (and cut glass) at a jeweler's workshop. You may specify whether to decorate furniture, finished goods or ammo. Requires gem setting.
Metal studs
Objects can be studded with various metals at a metalsmith's forge. Requires metalcrafting. This does not require fuel.
Cloth
Cloth images (both plant fiber and silk) can be sewn onto clothing items and bags at a clothier's shop. Cloth images cannot be sewn onto bags or quivers that contain items. Requires clothier.
Leather
Leather images can be sewn onto clothing items in the same manner as cloth, with the same restrictions. Requires leatherworking and a leather works.
