So a few years ago I got into trying to cut odd shapes. These shapes almost never make it into jewelry, but produce some interesting results. This one worked well for the small peridot I used it on. I got lucky in that the stone was already close to the final size, and ended up with a yield of 63% of the original.

My camera work has gotten a lot better since then. 😉

    Would make a bitchin’ wire wrapped pendant.

      I think something larger would be better. This is only about 4mm in length. I’ve got some larger flattish pieces of topaz that I was wondering what to do with. I’ll cut one in this shape and see what it looks like.
