Jewelry Overview
Occasionally in RS3, you will find an uncut gemstone, oftentimes by defeating enemies or via mining. Just about every gem in RS3 has magical properties, most of them carrying combat benefits. Gemstones can then be chiseled into cut gems, which vary in three criteria: color, cut, and carat:


 * Color is what type of gem it is. Different types of gems have, as you'd expect, different effects.
 * Cut is the shape a gem is cut into. Different cuts enable a gem to be used in different places/jewelry.
 * Carat is the size and thus grade of the gem. The smallest size a gem can have is 1 carat, and the scale increases by increments of 1 carat, with no set upper limit. The greater the size (measured in carats) the gem, the greater proportionally is its effect, and the greater exponentially its value and rarity.
