Use and acquisition
From pickup material to crafting
1. Distinguish the decorative book from Old Books material. A pickup that looks like this decoration gives Old Books × 1, not this exact decoration.; 2. Interact only when an actual pickup prompt appears, then check that Old Books increased in your inventory. Appearance alone does not distinguish a static prop from a pickup.; 3. For the separately verified Book I output below, prepare Old Books × 5 OR Paper × 5, satisfy its unlock conditions and craft at the Decoration Workbench. Choose one material option; both are not consumed together.; 4. Possible locations are listed below; access, availability and whether it has already been collected depend on your save.; Acquisition of this exact decoration remains unresolved. Collecting material or crafting a separate variant does not resolve it.
Craftable items with the same name
Acquisition of this variant remains unconfirmed. The following same-name items have their own formulas; appearance and interchangeability are not established. Compare these versions if you simply need a same-name decoration.; At Decoration Workbench find the matching recipe and prepare: choose one option: Old Books × 5 OR Paper × 5 (not all options together; mixing has not been confirmed); confirm it is unlocked, then craft: Book I (Recipe output) × 1.
Same-name variants
These same-name entries reference different placed objects, but player-visible appearance differences and individual acquisition locations are unconfirmed. Similar bounds do not establish interchangeability; there is no confirmed separate farming route for each variant.

What to check if the recipe is missing
These prerequisites apply only to the separate recipe output below. Acquisition of this variant remains unconfirmed; shared names do not establish interchangeability.; First unlock Cade Hawthorn and obtain Old Books OR Paper to meet the previously-collected requirement.; Check the matching entry at the recipe’s listed crafting location, then prepare the quantities below and craft. Pickup knowledge is not the crafting cost and does not establish your current inventory.; If the entry remains unavailable, check the listed station, crafting conditions and save progression.
