Ore

Ores (also called gems) are items introduced in.

Once per day, an Ore Rock will spawn somewhere in town. When the player strikes the Ore Rock with a shovel or axe, the rock will break open to reveal a random gem or ore. When the player strikes the Bell rock with the silver shovel, gems and ores may appear in increasing rarity, instead of Bells appearing in increasing value.

Ores can be sold or used at Re-Tail to customize pieces of furniture. In addition, Cyrus can create a random piece of furniture from the Golden series using 3 Gold Ores and 10,000 bells.

Customizing furniture
By giving a furniture piece along with an ore to Cyrus, he can create custom furniture that is dependent on the ore color. Once given a piece of furniture and an ore of the appropriate color, Cyrus offers to have the furniture customized using the ore or to use the normal color customization options. Below are the colors of ore that will trigger the dialogue when asking to customize furniture in the following series.
