How gemstones are made. Faceting ametrine, i think.
Переглядів 1,5 тис.3 роки тому
In this video i cut a piece of ametrine which is amethyst and citrine , both quartz minerals, just different colors. The reason i say in the title (i think ) is that once i got the stone cut the smaller section of citrine is lost in the amethyst color. So the stone mostly looks like a pure amethyst. The reason i couldnt center the dividing line between both shades of color is that the one corne...

    What type of faceting machine(s) do you prefer to work on? I’m just beginning to think about trying gem cutting, so I’m trying to learn about the various faceting machines out there. There seems to be a lot of manufacturers, but (except for the ultra-cheap Chinese ones) they’re all VERY expensive.
