Is it possible to get second-grade, non-jewel grade precious
stones that would work fine for this? Or is there even
such a thing?

Is this where the pearl(s) are ground up and then drunk in a
beverage? If so, I believe this was done in the medieval period
as well. See this file in the ACCESSORIES section of my files.
I believe there is a recipe in there.
pearls-msg (17K) 11/19/99 Period pearls. Use in jewelry and elsewhere.
I think I'll stick to "Tums".
