Ethereal Items are found only in the Expansion. "Ethereal" is not a modifier, it's a type of item flag, similar to Superior or Socketed, that can occur on all types of items. Ethereal can occur on normal items, but also magical, Rare, Unique, (but not Set), any type of item in the game that has durability.
'''Never Ethereal''': Rings, amulets, bows, crossbows, or on the always indestructible Phase Blades ([[Elite Crystal Swords]]<!--../weapons/swords-elite.shtml|Elite Crystal Swords]]-->), or any Set Items. Unique items that are Indestructible as a special property will not spawn Ethereal either. Sets being never-ethereal is assumed to be a bug.
Ethereal occurs on about 5% of all weapons and armor. It is both good and bad.
