Well, if you go to itemtypes.txt and set the magic column to 0 and the rare column to 1 (I think...either that or set both to 1...I don't have my file handy)...jewels will be able to spawn as rares. But I don't think they'll spawn as rare in shops...only if included in the gamble screen (which will still be a rare event) or if they drop from a monster and end up being rare.

If you want it to always be rare, you'll have to make a recipe that give you rare jewels as an output...after you make it possible for them to be rare in itemtypes.txt

In my mod, I simply cloned the jewel to make a new one in misc.txt, gave it a new itemtype with that allowed for rare-ness, and then made a cube recipe that turned normal jewels in the new type and alway makes them come out rare.

That's the only way I know of to ensure that they come out rare.
