Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

Mod loader

Minecraft version

⬇ Download for 1.21.1 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.20.1 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.21.1 · NeoForge⬇ Download for 1.20.1 · NeoForge⬇ Download for 1.20.1–1.21.1 · Forge
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

Gems & Jewelry

Mine seven new gemstones, hunt down legendary gems across the world, and forge them into armor, rings, and amulets with real, activatable powers.

Gems & Jewelry adds a full progression of gemstone ores, netherite-tier armor sets with their own set bonuses, rare structure-hunted treasures, and wearable jewelry that does more than look good — every ring has an active ability you trigger with a hotkey, and every amulet grants a passive effect while worn.

✨ Features

⛏️ Gemstone Ores

Seven new ores generate deep underground across the Overworld (diamond-pickaxe tier), each dropping its own gem:

💡 The gem veins use emissive textures — with supported shaders (BSL, Sildur's Vibrant, OptiFine emissive, etc.) the gems glow in the dark, making ores easier to spot.

💎 Legendary Gems

Powerful one-of-a-kind gems hidden throughout the world — each tied to a specific source:

Gem Where to find it Drop chance
Gem of the Sea Fishing (rare treasure) 0.2% per catch
Gem of Life Ancient City chests 5% per chest
Gem of the Void End City chests 1% per chest
Gem of Hell Nether Fortress chests 1% per chest
Vanishing Gem Woodland Mansion chests 5% per chest
Unstable Gem Desert Pyramid chests 1% per chest
Dragon Gem Dropped by the Ender Dragon 20% per kill

🛡️ Gem Armor

Seven full armor sets — one per gem — crafted just like vanilla armor but with the matching gem. Every set has netherite-tier protection (identical defense, toughness, knockback resistance, enchantability and durability) and is fireproof in lava. Wearing a complete set grants a unique passive bonus:

Set Full-set bonus
Topaz Water Breathing
Sapphire Speed I
Ruby Ignites attackers + 30% less fire damage
Zircon Haste I
Tourmaline Regeneration I
Citrine −10% incoming damage
Alexandrite +6 max health (3 extra hearts)

🎨 Every piece accepts all vanilla smithing trims, so you can decorate your gem armor just like vanilla gear.

💍 Rings — Active Abilities

Equip a ring in the ring slot and press the Activate Ring Ability key to trigger its power. Each ring has its own activation sound and an ender-pearl-style 5-minute cooldown shown right on the item.

📿 Amulets — Passive Powers
