How do you get the jeweler in Diablo 3? Is he acquired automatically as a quest later in the game or is he a random encounter?

You will first encounter the Jeweler during the Act II quest "Blood and Sand. In the sewers, you will find a Talking Barrel. Inside the barrel, you will find Covetous Shen. After freeing him, you will go on a short quest to recover an item the Crucible. After recovering the Crucible, Covetous Shen will set up in town similar to Haedrig.

You unlock the jeweler like you unlock the blacksmith, by doing the quest line.

The Jeweler is unlocked in the ACT II after the 7th quest of that ACT ("Blood and Sand").¹

  • I got quite a few gems before unlocking the jeweler. They're just random drops in the game. They're all white gems though, so if you're not looking for them, you might not notice them, if you're not picking up white items.
