Description
Why carry money when you can make it on the spot?
While wearing these gloves you can touch a non-magical item and choose to transform it into pure gold. This change is permanent. The resulting value of the item cannot exceed your five times your total character level—if the object you touch is large enough that it would be worth more than that total, it is not transformed.
Once the gloves have been used, they cannot be used again by any creature until dawn.
