Faceting Rough Advanced

Selected faceting rough pieces and parcels hand-selected by John Bailey. Faceting rough for advanced artists may contain significant challenges in mechanical and/or optical complexity. This will test and foster advanced skills in managing things like:

• artistic display of inclusions
• delicate cleavages
• heat-shock sensitivity
• advanced use of color zoning
• advanced display of bi-color
• strong biaxial pleochroism

And, often multiple such complexities in a single stone.
