Is zakat due on jewelry?

If gold is in the form of jewelry, will zakat be due based on the following: 1. If a woman wears it as an ornament; 2. If it belongs to a woman and she does not use it for a year; 3. If she keeps it for her daughter’s dowry?

There is no zakat on gold jewelry. However, if it is not part of a dowry (mahr) and not part of an inheritance, and was purchased or received as a gift and remained unworn for a year, then it is subject to khums.
