A gem crafter is an artist who plays with stones! Compared with the creation of large stones, such as Michelangelo’s sculptures, rough gemstones are all very small stones. There are four basic cutting techniques for gemstones: free polishing, cambering, faceting and carving.
1. Пробиване

Gem grinding machine
This is the simplest gem-cutting process. Put rough rough stones and abrasive materials into a gemstone grinding machine, and grind them together by rotating the drum until the rough stones are polished, just like the smooth and flat surface of the stone washed in the rapids, but the grinding machine can achieve a better polishing effect . Polishing stones is fun. In Western countries, this is also a family entertainment activity that is loved by children. It is simple and safe. It only requires cheap equipment to achieve excellent results and surprises children. Many people will buy some cheap semi-finished metal inserts and assemble these polished gems to make a great handmade gift!
2. Cabbing

A shape with a flat bottom and an arc at the top, also called plain noodles. This is a very common gem cut. We have seen many opals and turquoise use this cut. Is it cut into cabochon gems? Depending on the material of the gemstone, cabbage cut gems are easier to retain value and sell. The arc cutting is more complicated than free grinding, and the equipment used is more expensive. Обаче, you can polish beautiful cabochons with simple practice. Всъщност, playing arc surface craft is very enjoyable!
3. Faceting
Faceted cuts can discover the greatest potential value of a gemstone, such as a wedding ring, the most striking is the diamond. Its surface is composed of a series of geometric planes, each of which is called a “facet”. The facet cut can make the gems more shiny. The light enters the reflective surface and bottom facet of the gemstone and then reflects back, again entering the observer’s line of sight.
Gem craftsmen use gem faceting machines to polish gems. There are many types of such machines, and the quality of the equipment will directly affect the quality of gem cuts.
There are many types of gem cutters. Gem cutting is an art, not to say that it requires a lot of artistic cells and inspiration, but it requires some engineering, machinery and some mathematical skills. Many gem cutters are semi-professionals, and they sometimes sell gems out of interest and subsidies for household use. For those who collect and invest in gems, “faceted” is the most practical gem cutting style.
4. Carving

This is the most challenging type of gem art. There are many recognized experts in this field. In order to successfully engrave gemstones, you need to have a unique artistic foundation and inspiration, and a thorough understanding of the principles of gemstone crafting, which is more difficult than wood and metal carving!
There are several types of sculptures. One is relief sculpture. It is not limited to seashells and agate. It can be carved on any material. Carving techniques are often used on cambered gemstones. If engraving on the top surface of the arc, it is called “intaglio” или “relief”. If it is carved on the back, it is “anti-gravure”. Some carved gems are not used to make jewelry, they are simple and beautiful, with their own characteristics, and become independent carved works of art.
