Emerald amulet (u)

The Emerald amulet (u) is a unique and valuable accessory in Old School RuneScape, crafted for those seeking both style and utility. This unstrung amulet is created by using an emerald on a gold bar, requiring a Crafting level of 68. Its vibrant green hue not only makes it visually appealing but also signifies the potential power it holds once strung. Adventurers often seek this amulet as a precursor to its more powerful versions, as it provides a foundational step in enhancing one’s combat capabilities.
