Product Information

Note: This is Volume 1 of Amateur Gemstone Faceting, containing Chapters 1 to 9. To track down Volume 2, search for "Amateur Gemstone Faceting Volume 2: Expanding Your Horizons." Have you ever gazed in wonder at a faceted gemstone, at the ever-changing interplay of light, colour, and sparkle, and asked yourself how such a thing could come into being? Gemstones have been a source of fascination, mystery, and power for millennia, yet it is only in the last few decades that the tools and knowledge for creating these tiny miracles have been available to the average person. In this book, amateur faceter Tom Herbst lays out the steps necessary to transform a shapeless lump of rock into a glittering jewel that is unique and valuable. Along the way, he explains not only the "how" but also the "why," and provides helpful tips in dealing with many of the pitfalls that confront the beginning gem cutter. At a bare minimum, this book should help you appreciate the craftsmanship that gives life to the jewelry you love. Hopefully, however, you will be inspired to attempt your own first gemstone, the initial step in what may be a lifelong involvement in the captivating hobby of amateur gemstone faceting. Happy cutting, and may you make all your meets. Amateur Gemstone Faceting Volume 1: The Essentials - Chapter Summaries Foreword A welcome to the wonderful world of amateur gemstone faceting. Chapter 1 - Gems and Faceting Explains the nature and types of gemstones and introduces the hobby of faceting. Chapter 2 - Faceting Machines Provides an overview of the mechanics of faceting machines, including a section on evaluating and paying the right price for your dream machine or even building your own.
