Since there was some discussion around cutting, I thought I’d post some pics I took during the cutting of the previously posted iris cut.

So roughed in the pavilion and cut the girdle and first tier.

Next, finish cutting but not polished the pavilion.

Pavilion polished

Next step is to transfer the stone to another dop to cut the other side.

Cut the crown of the stone without polish or the table.

And now the final result

Feel free to ask questions!
