I recommend a strong and durable wood depending on use, if it is a tool box you carry from job to job, or a bench top/roll-a-round. Oak and or Ash is a good choice, keep in mind that its not so much the type of wood, but what kind of joints, I suggest box joints or dovetail. With these type of joints and the glues we have today most any wood will do, you can even make it out of manufactured wood, (MDF, Particle Board, Plywood, etc.)

I have made several out of the latter and they show no signs of wear, (I used butt joints with biscuits and Titebond III glue)

A human picked up a raw gem-quality diamond and admired it probably 6,000 years ago.

Over time, raw diamonds of gem-stone quality were mounted in metal initially for royalty, because only royalty could afford such adornments. Although there were probably diamond rings crafted before this period, you can view a natural diamond set in Midieval times -- about the 15th century, below.

Emerald is the green variety of beryl. Beryl comes in many colors, like blue, red, yellow.

There are so many different types of jewelry that this question is effectively impossible to answer. Jewelry can be made from almost anything, come in practically any shape or size, and can be handcrafted or mass-produced by machine.

A piece of string with a couple beads on it that you tie around your neck is jewelry. So is a carefully crafted diamond ring. So is a factory-produced plastic bracelet. There are more differences than similarities in the crafting of jewelry, so there is no one way in which jewelry is made.
