From Mine to Market
ARTISAN GEMSTONE FACETING
IN MARBLEHEAD

OUR GEM CUTTING PROCESS:
PRECISION & ARTISTIC VISION

1. CONSULTATION & STONE SELECTION

The journey begins with a collaborative consultation. Whether you have a family stone that needs recutting to unlock its hidden brilliance or wish to select a piece of high-quality rough for a custom faceting project, this initial step is critical. We will discuss your vision, evaluate the material, and map out a cutting plan tailored to achieve the most beautiful and valuable result from your chosen gem.

2. PRECISION FACETING AND ARTISTIC CARVING

In our on-site studio, your gemstone is brought to life. Our lapidary experts utilize state-of-the-art equipment and time-honored techniques to execute the design. From precision faceting classic shapes to creating intricate fantasy cuts or delicate hand carvings, every facet is meticulously placed to maximize the stone’s light return, color, and unique character, transforming it into a work of art.

3. FINAL INSPECTION & PRESENTATION

Upon completion, every newly cut gemstone undergoes a rigorous final inspection. We assess for perfect symmetry, flawless polish, and overall beauty to ensure it meets our exacting standards of excellence. The finished gem is then presented to you, ready to be admired as a treasured collector’s piece or prepared to become the heart of your next bespoke jewelry creation.

Lapidary artists … are one in a million. I took my small and very inexpensive onyx to the store to have it recut to fit a ring. Of course the work was flawless and fast!
