You have come very highly recommended for gem recutting. I purchased a radiant cut yellow sapphire a couple of months ago and had is set in a custom mounting, but now I am wondering if a recut of the stone would give it more "fire". Would you mind taking a look at it an giving me your opinion. It would be greatly apprecited.
Thanks,
Robin

I think I applied for membership, but it is difficult to tell, as I had no confirmation on the screen after filling out the form.

I can't log in, because I am not approved yet.

Is the captcha case sensitive?

I received this crystal from a customer with the request to facet a checkerboard brilliant oval. I am not a big fan of faceted phenomenal stones as they rarely do justice to the effects. Moonstones are especially suited to low flat cabochons which will display the adularescence optimally. High rounded cabs will have much smaller [...] […]

A Chameleon Sky

The sands of time are running out for the central star of this the Hourglass Nebula. With its nuclear fuel exhausted, this brief, spectacular, closing phase of a sun-like star's life occurs as its outer layers are ejected and its core becomes a cooling, fading white dwarf. In 1995, astronomers used the Hubble Space Telescope to make a series of images of planetary nebulae, including the one above. Here, delicate rings of colorful glowing gas (nitrogen-red, hydrogen-green, and oxygen-blue) outline the tenuous walls of the 'hourglass.' The unprecedented sharpness of Hubble's images revealed surprising details of the nebula ejection process and may resolve the outstanding mystery of the variety of complex shapes and symmetries of planetary nebulae.
