A gold bar is a bar of refined gold created through the Smithing skill at level 40 by using a gold ore with a furnace, or by casting Superheat Item on it. By default, this gives 22.5 Smithing experience per bar, but if the goldsmith gauntlets from the Family Crest quest are worn, the experience given is boosted to 56.2.
Gold bars cannot be made into weapons and armour as other bars can. Instead, the primary use of gold bars is to create jewellery through the Crafting skill. To craft gold bars into jewellery, players must use a gold bar on a furnace with the proper mould in their inventory. If players wish to craft jewellery with gems inset, they must also have the respective cut gems.

Apart from jewellery, gold bars can be used to create gold helmets, used in the Between a Rock... quest, and gold bowls which are used in the Legends' Quest.
Through questing, a player can obtain one gold bar upon completion of the Goblin Diplomacy quest, two from the Waterfall Quest, and two from The Dig Site quest.
Using the Telekinetic Grab spell, one can obtain a gold bar and a gold ore from the basement of Varrock's west bank or gold bars in the Corsair Cove Dungeon (south of the bank vault). The northernmost section of the cave at Corsair Cove (accessible after Dragon Slayer I) has an additional three gold bar spawns available without the need of Telekinetic Grab.
