The elves would have been pissed too, because it is made of wood :P

Got to resurrect this thread, just to share my Mayor's creation;

A cat leather thong!!! With jabberers in obsidian on the front!!! Worth 10k, but only to S&M fetishists, of which there are surely a few in any dwarven population.

Frankly, the amount of exotic clothing so far is worrying... And the lack of weapons or armour...

My first artifact was a chert ring decorated with chert.

Seriously? I don't think that's possible, to be worth only one money...

JUST now I got a pig tail chausse. I had to look up what a chausse was.

Were the decorations made of bone?

No. The decorations were carved into the amulet. I have absolutely no explanation for it.

A man would see that as a difficult challenge.
An elf would see that and despair.
A dwarf would see that and say, "Bring it on."

Scratch what I said earlier. I have a new lamest artifact. My bone carver claimed a craftsdwarf's workshop, and gathered a bunch of materials. Exactly what most of them were, I am not sure, but the finished product was a horse bone amulet... stupid glitch :P.

My blacksmith-in-training just went secretive. Wanting to attract some Fun, I used the burrow exploit and ended up with a copper anvil worth over 410k.

Not two seconds later, my legendary furnace operator goes fey, grabs one log and cranks out a nethercap bow.

I'd kill him if I could be bothered waiting for a replacement.

lamest? probably an iron shoe

yes. ONE shoe.

the only reason the dorf who made it hasn't been sacrificed to Armok yet is that he got legendary status out of it.

I do believe I can make a claim to the title of lamest artifact(s) with four(!) of my artifacts all featuring in the same fortress!

Exhibit A: RoarFalls: "This is a copper warhammer, all craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality, it is studded with copper and decorated with chestnut."

Exhibit B:  FedWhims, The meeting of renown: "This is a silver warhammer, all craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality, it is studded with silver.

Exhibit C: TarnishSmashed: This is a oaken grate, all craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality, it is encircled with groundhog leather, on the item is a picture of a goat in oak.

Exhibit D: DispersedWoman The friends of attack: This is a perfect brown zircon all craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality, on the item is a picture of a mountain in brown zircon.

I think you've misunderstood "lame".

Copper Warhammers are only a tiny bit lame.
Silver Warhammer are NOT lame. Not even a little bit. They KILL things.
Oaken grate, not lame. Useful in many, many situations.
Perfect brown zircon, worth 4800, NOT LAME. Not great, but not lame.

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.
Unfortunately dying involves the amputation of the entire body from the dwarf.
