Polished Bronze
Polished Bronze is made from 2 Bronze Details, 2 Sand and 1 Melted Fat at the Woodworking Workbench I, 2 at a time, once Bronze Polishing (30 red) unlocks the recipe. The melted fat means the Distillation Cube comes first. Three town stalls sell it ready-made: the Furniture Maker, the Jeweler and the Smithy.
The one you are most likely to run into is the Writing Desk, which costs one. Everything written on paper waits behind it, starting with the Leather Scroll that only that desk makes.
