The Jewel Market in Seregon, located in the Old Knot District, is an intentionally exclusive and smaller-scale version of the Grand Bazaar to cater to the city’s wealthiest merchants. Its placement in Old Knot serves as a strategic nod to the interests of these influential figures, who are often involved in both markets. The market's primary business revolves around the trading of precious jewels, particularly those sourced from the Moog mines, with a focus on cutting gems like moon bars and rubies into trade quality on-site.

In addition to jewels, the market also deals in other rare luxury items, making it a hub for high-end trade. The security within the Jewel Market is exceptionally tight, with little tolerance for theft or misconduct. This is ensured by a well-disciplined force of Immortals of Karsis, hired as private security agents who openly patrol the area. Their commitment to honor and service makes them formidable and impartial enforcers of order.

Moreover, the market employs undercover spies to detect and preempt any potential issues, maintaining an atmosphere of vigilance and control. All of these security measures are overseen by the Prince of Jewels, Kazimi, an elf wizard from the Sultanate of Sahar(See Kazimi Estate). Kazimi holds a monopoly over the jewelry trade in Seregon, and under his watchful eye, the market operates with a level of exclusivity and sophistication that befits its elite clientele. His influence ensures that the Jewel Market remains a secure and prestigious enclave for the city’s most affluent merchants.
