Gems

Gems, in fact, are a species of mineral flowers. They are the blossoms of the dark, hard mine, and what they lack in perfume, they make up in durability. Precious gems are profoundly buried in the earth and can only be extracted at the expense of great labor. Cut and polished gems become some of the most sought-after jewels. As you look at the cut and polished gems here, you will begin to understand how complex and yet how beautiful they become in the hands of master designers and cutters.

Faceting This is where the real magic is performed. Hundreds of tiny faces or “facets” are placed on the table and pavilion of the preshaped rough. This is an incredibly skilled and specialized talent which takes many years to perfect – experienced master cutters are a cherished breed. But the discerning collector knows the value of the real thing. And demands only that higher level of opulent masterpieces. These gems have life in them: their colors speak, say what words fail of.
