Behold! Oregon sunstone. This kite cut was a fun research project, tried my hand and designing a crown that would brighten the stone, I'd say the test was a success.

Behold! An X-cube, transformed into a "prismatic gem" The cut diagram is "trollola" It's now been a year of learning, from books read to community engagement with people very skilled at the craft, the main lesson is, never stop progressing, I have no talent, I just kept learning. #art

Behold! I'm not sure what type of agate this is, it's not quite black agate. But the cut was fun, I played around with a double crown, and I enjoy both sides of the result. What type of agate do you think it is ? #art #lapidaryartist #lapidarywork #facetedstone #cutstone #hellhound #mossagate

If you're interested in stickers, send a DM. Funds are tight for a lot of people, but if you're able to spend a little $, and like badly drawn, weirdly humanoid frogs, I've got stickers.

Upon further inspection, it is just more moss patterns, but for a bit I was convinced it was some sphere like inclusion, but air bubbles are not in real real gems.

Behold! Moss agate. It peaks at me, this small orb on a black short poll, tucked behind the moss, its observation is the orange hew in the distance past the thick mossy planes. #art #lapidaryartist #lapidarywork #facetedstone #cutstone #hellhound #mossagate
