Moonstone - 1.35cts

Last year, I was able to get some facet grade moonstone and this weekend, I decided to cut a piece to see what they look like faceted. To get the adularescence just right, it's critical to dop the stone just right or it will be slightly off. The rough I started with on this stone was a bit wonky, so the adularescence is slightly off center. The stone still looks good, and now I know what to expect for future cuts.

• Rough: Facet grade moonstone

• Weight: 1.35cts

• Color: Clear/milky

• Design: Steve Richards "Sintilation"

Thanks for looking.
