This Midnight Jewelcrafting leveling guide will show you the fastest and cheapest way to level Jewelcrafting from 1 to 100. I'll cover the trainer location, a shopping list, and what to craft at every skill range. I recommend checking the shopping list before you start so you can buy everything at once from the Auction House.
Jewelcrafting pairs best with Mining because you can farm your own ore and gems instead of buying everything from the Auction House. If you don't have Mining, you will need a fair amount of gold.
Jewelcrafting Trainer Location
You can learn Midnight Jewelcrafting from Amin in Silvermoon City. Talk to him to learn Jewelcrafting and pick up new recipes as you level up.
If you're looking for a full overview of all Jewelcrafting recipes and knowledge sources, or want help picking a specialization, check out these guides:

Shopping List
These are all the materials you need to first-craft every trainer recipe up to skill 50. Prospecting gives you some gems and dust, but you'll probably need to buy the rest from the Auction House.
- 60x any cheap ore (
Refulgent Copper Ore,
Umbral Tin Ore,
Brilliant Silver Ore) - 5x
Refulgent Copper Ore - 5x
Umbral Tin Ore - 31x
Glimmering Gemdust - 100x

Leveling 1 - 65
1 - 14
12x
Midnight Prospecting - 60 cheap ore you bought
After prospecting, craft:
4x
Sin'dorei Lens - 4x Glimmering Gemdust, 12x Crystalline Glass
You can buy
Jeweler's Toolset from the supply vendor near your trainer if you don't have one. You will need it if you don't have any profession equipment yet.
14 - 50
The trainer gives you new recipes every 5 skill points, and crafting each one once for the first-craft bonus is enough to keep pace. Just work through the list below and visit the trainer whenever you hit the next threshold.
- In your Profession window, click on Filter and tick "First Craft Bonus". This will only show recipes that still give the first-craft bonus.
- Keep the Profession window open, then click your trainer to open the trainer window too. Both windows should be visible side by side (this makes it easier to learn new recipes).
- Craft each recipe that shows the first-craft bonus, then check the trainer for new recipes.
- Repeat until you've crafted everything through the skill 50 trainer batch.
Specializations
You unlock your first specialization at skill 25. Check out my Midnight Jewelcrafting Specialization Guide for detailed builds and where to spend your Knowledge Points.
50 - 65
Turn off your First Craft filter.
40x
Monologuer's Chalice - 80x Crystalline Glass
This is really cheap to make, so make it until it turns grey.
Leveling 65-100
You don't have to rush this part unless you need the extra skill for guaranteed gold-quality jewelry without Concentration. If you're not planning to fill Crafting Orders, you can just stop here and slowly gain skill from Patron Orders and first-craft bonuses as you pick up new recipes.
Optional Reagents
These would be the cheapest recipes to craft for skill-ups in this range, but we don't know how common the recipes will be, so just check the Auction House and if they are cheap, you can buy them and craft for skill-ups.

Cut Eversong Diamonds
Each diamond cut gives 2 skill points, orange to 80 and yellow after that. The recipes drop in Midnight dungeons, but it's not BoP, so you can find them on the Auction House too.

Profession Equipment
Rare profession equipment has no time-gated materials this time around, so you can just buy a recipe and spam craft it to 100 if you have the gold. You can also fill Crafting Orders from other players to save on materials.
Epic profession equipment gives 3 skill points per craft, and they stay orange all the way to 100, but they are more expensive to make.

Jewelry (Rings & Necklaces)
If you went into the ring or necklace specialization, you can level by filling Crafting Orders. All epic jewelry stays orange to 100. These need Sparks though, so you're not going to be mass crafting these yourself.
