Bob Ross would call it a happy little Accident. The Gem is magical. The Center looks like it's liquid,and the Gem is shiny from every angle,even from the side. Awesome.

Absolutely beautiful piece. The customer that's lucky enough to purchase this gem will be extremely grateful each time it's worn, as it will be admired by many.

That is absolutely the coolest thing I’ve ever seen!

always nice to open youtube to a new vintage time upload. :)

Congratulations on a beautiful result, fantastic recovery, and having the guts to share your thought process. This is how we all learn. Love the Round and Faceted mix. New Sub! Mike

I think this stone is beautiful and don't know where you say you went wrong. I always hated my birthstone Topaz as it was to me always a dull murky yellowy colour, but now I'm this many years old I find that Topaz is so much more than the yellow that I disliked as a child. Beautiful!

You came up on my recommended page. And you know I had to click on it.

this stone is incredible, you are a true master gem cutter, you used a dull bit of a stone and brought it to life, sparkling and with a personality of look at me,,,, breathtaking

wow it's incredible just how sparkly and blue it came out, looks great!

Topaz is one of my favs, thanks Cliff! chat soon^^

absolutely nice faceting! not an easy stone. beautiful Lights effects

The final reveal was mesmerizing, similar to getting lost gazing into a campfire. Thanks Cliff,

Wow it still turned out stunning 👍👍👏👏😍😍

This is amazing and beautifull! I have never wanted a d20 more

This Stone is crazy beautiful for saying its just topaz it shows that good craftsmanship can make any material beautiful

That is so beautiful! As clear as pure water, the colour of a glacier... Thanks for sharing, Cliff!

Excellent improvisation , the gem looks fantastic !The transfer blocks is very interesting idea. Thanks Cliff for great video .

When working with any natural material, sometimes you have to be willing to listen if it starts telling you how it wants to look. Well done.

Simply stunning

Enjoyed this episode an great on the fly modifications! turned out wonderful! Thanks

that is so gorgeous, great work

It looks like perpetually melting ice. That's so pretty.

Nice video! Thank you for teaching us! It looks incredible almost like water!

Hi friend its been awhile. unfortunately i come baring very bad news. 2 weeks ago my home in AZ was completely destroyed by a horrific fire. all my equipment, notebooks, science texts, and mineral collection too was also destroyed. all my gemstones i had made watching your channel gone as well. but i am here to continue to listen and observe for one day i will start doing this again.

Hello my artist friend When I enjoy watching your work, I want you to know that it was your work that inspired me to become interested in stones and this art. Please show a little more detail so that people like me can use your art. I sincerely thank you

Wonderful Result 👏 I knew your idea for Option 2 would be super interesting. I was really looking forward to it. Excellent improvisation and implementation. Thanks for the great Video👍

Awesome. Excellent thinking outside the box. Just beautiful 😍

That second block is clutch

Beautifully done. Enjoyed watching the process.

Nicely done 👌🏻

Beautiful work! It's very nice of you to gift this video to us even or precisely because of a small hiccup. Thanks for sharing!

Nice save Cliff, there’s experience for you, love the gem.

Such a gorgeous finish, and very interesting and educational journey with this gem. Thank you for this, it is amazing, as always.

Outstanding result! 👍

WOW!!! Beautiful!!!

Even with the mishaps the gem still looks fantastic!

Really great video! Amazing work.

Thanks cliff for this nice video👍🏼👍🏼you are a great gem cutter 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇿🇲🇿🇲😀👏

Beautiful stone. Think you for sharing. I'm just trying to learn how to cut stones, so I really appreciate the tips.

Great recovery ! another Amazing gem.. Beautiful gem. Thanks for the added ' those who are beginners ' info.. start with a gem that's easier to polish ! love the Eastwood ' know your limitations '.. great movie. great video Cliff !!

Nice. A piece of jeweled iceberg.

I love the stone and the cut as well. It is a bit odd not seeing a table but I really do like it. I mean I really like it.

Beautiful

So beautiful

Great video again. The transfer blocks do make a huge difference. Very interesting idea with the convex crown, something to play with another day :). I do wonder how a flat table cut would have gone.

Very nice Master.

This gem may not be exactly what you wanted, but it's still beautiful. Good job.

Thank you for the video

a nice stone mate

Wonderfull!! Congratulations, its a very beautifull work!

Wunderbar und sehr schön

Love the shape! Great job!!

I am just starting with this hope i can cut some nice one soon :) thank you for this tutorial

This is awesome.

Beautiful.

I've always thought that these particularly pretty light blue, high clarity, low flash and fire stones benefit from a particularly deep and relatively low facet count cut. Something like an emerald cut. My mom has a nice aquamarine ring that she wore for a while while she had her engagement ring resized. It featured an emerald cut piece of what I assume to be synthetic aquamarine and it is still one of my favorites of her jewelry collection.

Great video brother. 💪🤠👍

Lol!! I just watched "Magnum Force" a few days ago! Really enjoying your videos. I am brand new to rockhounding and looking for inspiration! Thanks!!

so good!! nicely done :)

Gorgeous 💎 ❤️

Top job! Wow!

Thanks for your sharing video

I would like to go learn from you. I saw your videos. They are so amazing skill. The gem came out so beautiful.

Gorgeous! Ripples on the water :)

I would like to recommend you a very interesting anime series where each character is a precious gem, the name of the anime is Land of the Lustrous (Houseki no Kuni).

Beautiful!

Super like linda pedra lindo tales de topázio meu amigo 👦

extraordinary

I see a Star Trek ring. Nice work.

Very nice

Hey cliff! it’s been a while, but i missed your gem cutting so i’m here now hehe. love the content and you teach me a lot! maybe some day when i have more expendable income i’ll be able to get into this hobby

Very informative :)

Show ,thanks .

I have this gemstone blue topaz so beautiful I buy from Malaysia

Amazing Ferfect 😍😍😍😍💯⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👍

AMAZING!!!!

Hi , What is the brand of the alignment blocks? I have looked all over the net. Did they come with your Gemaster or are they separate product? Thank you

Very nice 👍👍

Nice

Fantastic cut, Cliff!!! Your convex/cab idea was brilliant... Something I would never imagined. I will say that beginning cutters should shy away from your novel technique until many roads are traveled. You made it look far easier than it really is... I salute you. Regards those transfer blocks: I tried three times to contact the fellow to buy them, but must have the wrong address. If you get a chance, resend that info to me via email. Thanks much for the great video.

Huh, I didn't know you could do that with Topaz. Same process is used on the treated Blue Diamonds, they're gorgeous and cheap since I remember hearing that dirty brown diamonds, which are the lowest value diamonds, tend to produce the best blues after being irradiated. So it's a win win, taking a cheap flawed gem, and then turning it into something uniquely beautiful as no other gemstone has the same colour blue hue as you get on a blue diamond.

Well you may had had a few issues with it but the end result is great looking gem. Looks like you might have just lowered your limitations with working out a way to produce a nice cut after having some issues. Kept Safe & Keep Rockin

Parabéns pelo trabalho!

Amazing work! What brand of flat lap do you use?

thumbs up on reveal

Amazing, interesting presentations 🇲🇨🇲🇨👍😇

Could you get your hands on Super 7 Crystal and show the process of cutting it please

Amazing, sir ! I'm student form VietNam. May I ask you what is the use of water in this process?

Simplemente hermoso, en cuanto se vendió está gema ???
