    hii i love your cuts and your gems!!! i follow you on instagram from almost 1 year and if I decided to approach the world of precious stones it is also thanks to your videos. every time someone tells me it's impossible to find rubies, sapphires or anything else, I show them your videos. I didn't think I'd find you here on RUclips too and I'm very pleased. when I finally buy my cutting/polishing machine I will show you my first creations!!! thank you very much

    I've got a decent amount of raw corundum from propst, makes me wonder what some of it would look like facetted

      That’s awesome!! I don’t usually custom cut gems for people, but if you’d be interested in trading some rough material I’d be happy to send back a cut piece or two :)

    Where did you learn how to do this? I've looked and can't find any info

    • @tayraegems
      @tayraegems  6 месяцев назад +2

      I learned how to facet at William Holland in Georgia! Some local universities offer programs, but I’d recommend looking for a smaller school of lapidary arts near you :)

    That is a very nice use of the lap, I’ve heard ruby is very “hard” to cut & facet, great work 👍

    Très beau travail de coupe qui le met bien en valeur. Rien de mieux que des rubis naturelle

    When it is not transparent the whole point of faceting is gone.
    But of course you can still do it even if the whole point of it is gone..

    I was gonna ask you if you learned at William Holland then i saw on your channel! Im looking forward to when we can get our own faceter, just making cabs right now. But i took a class there last summer!

      That is so awesome!!! William Holland is the best. Taking the leap from cabbing to faceting is incredible too ☺️

    I would call that a sapphire, its more pink than anything else, making it a pink sapphire

      @spencertwitty8349 7 месяцев назад +2

      Blacklight will tell if it's a sapphire or a ruby. But I'm pretty sure it a ruby .the pink you see is the inclusions and the polishing marks

    • @tayraegems
      @tayraegems  7 месяцев назад +2

      You’re probably right according to the technical definition! It’s not true red, but it’s about as close as it gets for NC gems
