Need a lapidary

[T L]

Now that Jerry Newman is retired, I need a lapidary for this six carat sphene. It’s a pretty apple green, with lovely diffraction, despite looking muddy olive in the photos.

Any suggestions? Do you think I might lose too much carat weight if I get an elongated scissors cut?

Beautiful sphene!
I can recommend Boyd Fox in Texas, he closed a window on my spinel and lost minimal weight.

I’ve just been in contact with him about my Kashmir. Haven't sent yet, but I’m going to.

@mvmgems perhaps on IG?

Did you find anybody? If not, I can make a recommendation (also, agree with Michelle / MVMGems)

Did I recommend him to you, @CBianco? I suggest him a lot! lol Hi, BTW!! I'd also recommend Denton Anderson in Denver, @T L.

P.S. I'm a sucker for scissor cuts, so I may be the wrong person to answer that question. And on a sphene with all that fire... man.
