  1. I'd probably lower the gp values on a lot of the items to prevent random dungeon dressing from becoming a hoard of loot, but otherwise this is great. I love it when people point out the kind of details that most writers overlook. Some of the items, like tapestries or engraved decorations on plates, could even be expanded into adventure hooks with the mysterious tales they tell.

  2. I'm grabbing these for use in my Tyranny of Dragons campaign! Due to the nature of the storyline, players are always stumbling across treasure, and it's much more interesting if I can describe a few unique items in among the usual piles of gems and coins.
