Hmm. Then ... Are you the spare bedsheet in Gnome Ann's Inn?

To find what you seek ................................................................... i.e. to get a balloon afloat - which you need silk or rubber for the actual balloon ...
You must watch me carefully ............................................................. i.e. you can't get silk - so you try jumping on the bed, and see that the bedsheet is elastic ...
Or you could just guess .................................................................... so, since all you can get is elastic rubber, and you can't steal your own bedsheet, you steal the spare.

Am I right? *crosses fingers*

No

New clue:
I can also be found off the island of Marete.

Sigh. All right. Let's think. *thinks; thinks hard; thinks more*

Well, unless you are dirt or stone (which I doubt you are), there's no other option.

Are you the chest in the hero's bedroom? (You can find your chest in the hero's bedroom in Gnome Ann's Inn, or find someone else's off the island of Marete).

To find what you seek ...................................................................... i.e. to get your possessions (or someone else's, when you open a chest off the island of Marete) ...
You must watch me carefully ............................................................. i.e. you have to search through the chest, whether your own or someone else's ...
Or you could just guess .................................................................... i.e. just open the chest and search at random.

No

New clue:
I can be found in several places, including Minos' island.

Oh! *brow clears* Are you the Minotaur's Axe?

I don't know how that fits your three clues, but that's the only thing that can be seen both inside and outside, and isn't alive. Toro and his Axe can be seen inside the Adventurers' Guild, and later in the Dragon's Lair. On Minos's Island, you can also see a Minotaur and his Axe.

(Sigh. Unless you're something silly, like a double-door ... in which case, like Marvin the Martian, that would make me very angry)

No

New clue:
I can be found in several places in the city.

Can you be found in the market and/or shops/bank?

Yes

Well, that's settled. Now then ... are you found outside (i.e. in the market, not the shops or bank)?

No

Ahhh! *lightbulb moment* Are you the set of lockpicks?

To find what you seek .............................................................. i.e. to unlock the lock
You must watch me carefully ........................................................ i.e. watch the dancing figure, and match him
Or you could just guess ............................................................... well - you could guess, but it's better not to

Also:

- I can also be found in Minos's island. Yep, there's a set of lockpicks on the table.
- I can be found in several places in the city ... and in the market/shops/bank area, but not outside. Yes, there's a set of lockpicks on the floor in the bank.

You also start with one if you are a thief, and if you don't have one, you can buy one in the thieves' guild.

Am I right?

No

New clue:
You are close.

Rats! I was sure I had it right. The clue doesn't help much, sorry.

Are you found in the bank?

Are you something that can be moved by the character?
(A door, etc)
