Jewelry Generator - 1.0

Hey all!

In my games, the players rob a ridiculous amount of tombs and graves, and I was needing a lot of different pieces of jewelry for them to find. I created this generator that randomly determines the value of a piece of jewelry based on the material its made from and the gen inlays. It also gives you a description of the jewelry for your players and a little bit of history on where the piece came from. I hope you get some use out of it!
