Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between facet rough and tumbling rough?
Facet rough is transparent-to-translucent material with sufficient clarity to cut and polish flat facets that reflect light. Tumbling rough is typically opaque or heavily included material shaped by abrasive tumbling rather than precision cutting.
Q: How hard are the gemstones in this lot — can I cut them with a standard faceting machine?
Hardness ranges from ~5 (Apatite) to ~7.5 (Zircon/Aquamarine) on the Mohs scale. All species in this lot can be faceted on a standard flat-lap faceting machine using appropriate lap grits without special tooling.
Q: Are carat weights per piece or for the entire lot?
The carat weights listed are the total weight per species across all included pieces of that stone. Individual piece sizes vary within each species — the lot ships exactly as described with the stated piece counts.
