So I finished the problematic stone. I have to say this isn’t my best showing, but at least it’s done. 😁

I believe the stone came out slightly windowed, and does return the light as intended when looking through the table.

If you look closely at the girdle, it is wider on the right than it is on the left, as my vertical alignment was off after resetting the stone back on the dop after it popped off.

I’ll post something when I’ve finished the pair of garnets that are up next.
