Gems, Diamond's & Goldsmithing.

Goldsmithing is the art of making jewelry, objects, ornaments and accessories handmade, in a traditional way, from precious metals or alloys.

And a goldsmith is a metalworker who specializes in working with gold and other precious metals. Modern goldsmiths mainly specialize in jewelry-making but historically, they have also made silverware, platters, goblets, decorative and serviceable utensils, and ceremonial or religious items

silversmithing in contrary is the traditional term applied to larger-scale making, and often refers to silverware kind of objects (cutlery, vases, teapot, bowls, candelabrum, etc)

Gemstones are rare minerals which are cristalised and when the hardness is sufficient, are cut and polished to be used in jewelry and decorative objects
