We have a collection of designs to help you get started. Once the design and cuts are finalized, we will help determine a firm price and estimate the finished size and weight of the final gem.
Measuring the Design
Custom gem cutting is a straightforward process, but also irreversible. Once the cutting is done, there’s no going back. Therefore, any change you introduce to the final gem should be determined at the designing stage. Usually, cutters spend the most time selecting and optimizing the design as opposed to cutting it. They use a variety of tools to ensure the least waste and maximum value to the stone. Tools vary from traditional tools that are as timeless as the gemstone itself to modern computer aided modeling software. Software helps visualize designs in various gem materials with incredible accuracy, further improving the value of custom cuts.
