Sometimes I get the honor and the clients confiden

Sometimes I get the honor and the clients confidence to bring life to old gemstones that sit in jewelry that has a long history. Like this one that goes all the way back in time to 1943 or earlier! This Aquamarine got a repolish of the facets and a great stone setter @gemartstockholm took it out and later put it back into the setting. It is often thought that jewelry has some years. The aquamarine in this ring is thousands of years old, as it has grown in pegmatite and then been found. Over time sold and refined into a gemstone.

Thank you for your confidence that I got to touch this amazing heirloom.

Proportions and symmetry of the facets had a commercial cut, with irregular sizes and with some damages and scratches on the facets.
A adjustment of the facets and repolishing gave this one a different look.

If you have invested in a beautiful gemstone, a repolish can increase it's value, with minimal weight loss of course.

The art of gemcutting is for the one with patience

The art of gemcutting is for the one with patience and love for accuracy!
Every facet in a gemstone requires each facet to be cut on with a different grit, going from very coarse grit to the very finest which gives it the final mirror like polish.
Usually 4 different diamond grits are used 360, 600, 8000 and 60,000 (depends on the gem & cutter one can go higher on the grit on the final stage).

Some facets can take longer than anticipated. As is the case with a number of facets on particular gemstones.
A frequent occurrence for those gems/minerals that have cleavage (e.g. Diamond, Topaz).
For a gemstone of 100 facets one could polish 400 facets by the time it is finished.
This also assumes no problems occuring during this cutting/polishing process.

Also it is not possible to tell what the color of the gemstone will be when it is still on the dop.
It must be removed from the dop before the true color and optical properties of the gemstone can be determined.

When doing repairwork or repolishing gemstones the colour, brilliance can get more intense, depending if the gemstone have the correct angles already on the crown/pavillion. Since repolishing the facets, it will increase the gemstones optical properties due to the light that will travel through the gemstones and increase colour/brilliance when bounced up again through the crown, back to the beholder.
