WOW  That looks like the best I've seen yet to be cut from D.H. I'm curious of the carat weight also. |

Lizzie:
That is a beautiful cut amethyst from the Diamond Hill Mine. I really like to see people using the materials they find during our digs. I hope you have the stone mounted so you can wear it. Thanks for posting the pictures of the stone. Finally, Gsellis, you did a great job cutting the nice purple rough. Keep up the great work.

A big hats off to George for an excellent cut. Those who do not cut have no idea how hard it can actually be to get those BIG facets polished like that. That is a stone to treasure.

Thanks guys. And for big facets, I find that having a lucky pig and using the right swear... er magic words helps. |
