<p>[QUOTE="808 raver, post: 11101300, member: 4654"]I bought some faceted opals in auction but I don't have the lapidary machine to do it. My inspiration was the freeform stones cut for maharajas that inspired Cartier's tutti frutti designs ect. Also, freeform opals tend to catch light in a way that cabochon and faceted stones don't, it's hard to explain and I can't upload a video to show.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
