Re: cabbing ????

My suggestion for a stone with such potential value is to take it to someone who is known for finding that seweet spot. Cabbing is not hard, but I have seen similar stones completely ruined and worth absolutely nothing...I would sure love to see a pic of it in the rough and then after it is done!

Best o luck

Re: cabbing ????

Are you sure it will Star? A picture of the stone would be helpful. I cut Gemstones and have a small shop. My advice is take it to someone in your area that cuts Gemstones, and let them take a look at it. If you can not find anyone, you could visit my web site and send me a picture of it and I might be able to help you. kybob http://rollinghillscustomjewelry.com/
