Morganite is probably my most favorite of the gems. I love Rubies and find Tanzanite so very appealing and enchanting. Mandarin Garnet will suck me in at a glance but Morganite resides at the very top of my list. This stone is stunning!

My family did a lot of lapidary work, and I had some wonderful times. At one point, I looked into faceting, mostly because of my love of faceted gems. Never did, though and stayed with Opals. This was a wonderful and fascinating process to watch. The cut for this stone gave it life as you looked down into it. I was captured by the varied splashes of light generated by the facet angles of the pavilion. Lastly, the color. I've seen Morganite that are pink. This color is, in my opinion, much more stunning. Thanks for a view into faceting.

Hi Steve, I am envious of you having such a magnificent piece of rough to facet. I have admired your work for quite some time and have the same machine that you are now using. I am just a hobbyist and do my faceting for fun and to make jewelry to give to family members. I am wondering what your rationale is for running the machine in the counter clockwise direction. Do you see a benefit for going in this direction rather than clock wise?
