Просмотров 6 тыс.6 месяцев назад
A fantasy gem is the combination of a faceted and a carved gem. This is the first fantasy gem I've cut. I still need a lot more practice at carving and using the tools by hand. There are very few videos out there on fantasy gem cutting. I hope this video is a help to those who wish to facet and carve their own gems. Best Wishes Cliff

      @VintageTimeGems 7 дней назад

      Thanks. I can understand why many people don't like synthetics. My preference was always natural, but over the years with the cost and the lack of quality material synthetics have their place in the world of faceting. I would love to be faceting real pink diamonds or sapphires, but they are out of my price range.

      @jameswelch1054 7 дней назад

      @@VintageTimeGems Yes, I totally understand. Only kings can afford to buy a real pink diamond. You are my favorite gem cutting channel. I also like Bopie's channel, and another guys channel from the USA. All of you have both shows on cutting naturals, and some with synthetics. How far are you from Rubyvale? They have some free collecting sites over there, or maybe you could wrestle Tim, for a sapphire, hahaha. Anyways I love your shows, you are the best.

    Good to see you mate. Hey I am wondering if you have cut any Helenite yet. If you don't know what it is it's manmade out of the volcanic ashes from Mount St. Helens. It has a mhos of 7-7.5. Mine is a lush green and i don't care for green. I bought some cut stones out of it because I wanted to see it. My clients love the stuff. You might give it a peek. Cheers

    • @VintageTimeGems
      @VintageTimeGems 7 дней назад

      Yep, I have faceted Helenite. Made a video on it years ago (Volcanic gems). Hard to polish as it really Obsidian (molten glass). I'm not a fan of cutting any type of glass.

    protip - if you don't want to buy expensive CA glue accelerator, baking soda and distilled water work extremely well. the water, itself, is an accelerator - so don't just toss baking soda on your gem. also, keep your glue in the fridge in a ziplock bag (bonus points if you through a couple moisture-absorption packs from other packaging) and it will last a lot longer and not seize up on you in the bottle. take it out of the fridge about 30min before you need to use it.

    My first moisannite was a one 6.5mm round cut I bought in 2005 for US $200. Bought some cheap green hue stones from India in 2018 but sizes and weights were not standard. Really great in 2024 to buy nice clear relatively colorless 6.5 mm, 8mm and larger for $12.50 to $80 from Chinese sources. Even found a 9mm 3.5 carat cushion cut for $55. Only less expensive stones of interest now are lab grown ruby, sapphire and pink sapphire. No good reason to use CZ with these mohs 9 to 9.25 stones being so affordable today. Good video. Good info
