richard -

>     So I would like to ask, what does the word "jeweler" describe. 

    can't help you with an exact etymologically accurate definition, but
    i suspect it is on the order of something i heard my favorite aunt
    answer when asked what she did "oh, ah'm a housekeepah." shocked, i
    turned and sputtered "aunt e, why in the world would you say such a
    thing?" she smiled, "why sugah, you know ah kept five of them from
    mah husbands." (she was difficult to live with - those five passed
    away - but a lot of fun.) 

    so maybe it isn't always the letter of the title that defines it
    best, but a meaning that encompasses a lot of contributing factors.
