Hi guys, me again. I just made this thread to find some answers to my question re gem recutting.
1. Is it possible to recut a Pear shaped gem to Round brilliant (let''s say the gem dimension is 16x12x9mm,VS-SI Clarity)? Even if the material is normally included like Rubellite, Emerald etc.?
2. For an oval, native cut gem with dimension of 12.5x10x5.7 mm (VS-SI), is it possible to close out its large window but still retain its face up size or does trimming it down to let''s say, 8.5x9mm, necessary?
Hope to get some helpful advise, thoughts, feedback, etc from you guys. Thanks in advance!
