      Thanks, I was thinking along the same lines.
    3. TinyT, 9 years ago
      Do you think it would add to the value if I got it faceted?
    4. kyratango kyratango, 9 years ago
      Agree with id!
      About having them faceted, their inclusions/structure seems to only allow the cabochon cut. Cab cut make them look like yummy hard candies :-)
    5. TinyT, 9 years ago
      Yes they are very beautiful, probably better to leave them as they are. I was just considering the value as the faceted ones seem to demand more money
