jeweller
Gem store proprietor
A jeweller is a person who makes, repairs, or sells jewellery—rings, necklaces, bracelets, and other ornamental items.
The term also applies to the shop where such work is done: I took my watch to the jeweller for repair.
Jeweller is the British spelling; Americans write jeweler.
