[QUOTE="Dutch, post: 581934, member: 19642"] I had the stones cut by Lambert Industries in Bangkok. I requested a very symmetrical cut for a high luster. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures of the result to show. They really did their best and the result was there. They were all relatively small stones under 2cts. The largest cut was 4.5ct. When my trip to Australia is final, I will make a stopover in Bangkok for a few days. This time I would like to bring the stones personally and discuss the possibilities. Last time I arranged everything by mail. I would also like to watch the process for a while. As a newbie I find it difficult to read a stone, which shape is best, how does the color look best and what about the total of carat that remains. I also have no idea how long it takes to cut a regular shape. I hope to learn this there. @Dihusky: Nice piece, great finished result. Is it an eye shape? How many small stones can you do a hour? just to get an impression [/QUOTE]
