Emerald 7.5 mm in custom design by son
My son has really started to get into faceting. He bought a boule of hydrothermal emerald(man made) as he wanted to cut a design he made specific to emerald.
He sliced the emerald in half and gave me one half while he cut his up into the sizes he was going to facet.
I was mostly hands off with this and only really helped out when his stone popped off the dop. He did a great job!

Cracking job, love the colour
Your son is quite talented! How much longer until you have to buy him his own machine? 😂
He's already planning and budgeting for his own machine. 😂 He also has a friend who has asked him to cut something for a girlfriend... What's really funny about this, is that a few years back he didn't think this hobby was at all interesting.
