This three-dot artifact is detailed in Aspect Book: Wood, pp 80-81. The intricate geometric patterns carved into the white jade of this breastplate catch and confuse the eye.

If attacked by magical metal weapons, two motes are regained. The wearer cannot regain more motes in this way each turn than his Stamina.
