In this one we have some fun on the faceting machine! For starters, our buddy Kurt over at @RockHoundingAdventures sent us a beautiful Juniper Ridge fire opal to cut for him, so we gave it a nice flower cut and break it down step by step. Its a very simple process that yields absolutely beautiful results! I am excited to ship it back and see what he thinks! After that, we delve into the realm of madness and cut something a little unconventional; a quartz sphere! I selected a nice chunk of fractured clear quartz specifically so that we could get some of those amazing rainbow highlights and spiral cut it into a sphere! Considering it was our very first attempt at faceting a sphere, I'd say it came out absolutely beautifully! Now that we've done one, I am absolutely going to be doing some testing on my own time and we will revisit this topic with a much larger specimen! I hope you all enjoy and have a wonderful week!
