Olmhazan's Jewels

Olmhazan's Jewels was a jewelry shop in the Castle Ward of Waterdeep.

Purpose / Function

Almost all varieries of gems could be found for sale at Olmhazan's Jewels, save for magical gems and extremely rare ones, such as amaratha, king's tears, and rogue stones. Prices were slightly higher than typical market values, usually adding between 15 and 25 gp to each stone's value.

Architecture

The shop's façade was made of silvered polished stone and was shaped like an enormous faceted gemstone. This aesthetic choice was commonly mocked by the Waterdhavian nobility.

Interior

The inside of the shop was lined with displays showing an enormous variety of nonmagical gemstones. The display stands were decorated with beljuril shards that made them continuously sparkle.

Defenses

The shop was defended by two trained mimics that disguised themselves as a display stand and part of the front entrance and gem façade. It was uncommon for thieves to steal from the shop since one such attempt had resulted in the thief being partially devoured by one of the mimics.
