Jewelcrafting is one of the primary professions you can learn in World of Warcraft. Our WoW Jewelcrafting leveling guide is updated for ‘Cataclysm’ and will help you in leveling up your skill from 1 to 525.

Almost all raw materials you need to make jewels come from mining. Therefor, mining is the ideal gathering skill for a player leveling up Jewelcrafting. We have created a detailed World of Warcraft mining guide to help you level your mining skill as well.

Like any other professions, Jewelcrafting is also learned from a trainer. Trainers are located in all major towns in World of Warcraft and in most starting areas. Best way to locate a trainer of any kind would be to ask a NPC guard, who will direct you to the trainer by giving directions and marking the location on your mini-map.

After learning the skill, make sure you buy a Jeweler’s Kit from the supplies vendor who is usually placed right next to the trainer. Without the Jeweler’s Kit, you will not be able to craft most of the items you can learn to make as a jewelcrafter.
