I'm a bit late to the party but here's what I have from last year. It was an answer to a forum question but I added it to the wiki here:

If someone who knows more about this comes along PLEASE update this. I would love a PM on the boards (username17) so you can enlighten me.

There has been some confusion about what graphic an item dropped on the frozen continent might have.
Below is a guide on how to best confirm what Appearance an item will have be it Scale, Plate, Chain, etc.
# Look up the Item in question on Lucy using the 'Item Search' field on the left panel.
::
http://lucy.allakhazam.com/
# Check the Appearance section on the right hand side
# Consult the table below with said caveats:
:: Velious Plate 1 = Scale
:: Velious Plate 2 = Plate
:: Velious Chain 1 = Ringmail
:: Velious Chain 2 = Chainmail
:: Velious Leather 1 = Cloth
:: Velious Leather 2 = Leather
:: Velious Monk = The unique monk chest graphic to show off their muscles.
If the description in the Appearance section does not mention Velious then the item has the classic look.
