On-Site Gem Cutting Services
Our professional gem cutter, Chad and Ryan and jeweler, Ron and our Apprentice Jewlery Ryan is available on-site to evaluate your stones and help bring your vision to life. From rough stone to finished gem, he ensures the highest level of precision and artistry, maximizing beauty and value.
Simply bring your gemstone find to our on-site gemologist, who will assess your stones and help you select the best candidates for cutting. You may have heard of the “Four C’s” of gemstones—color, clarity, carat, and cut. While the first three are qualities of the raw gem, cut is where true craftsmanship shines. That’s where we excel.
Why Cut Your Gemstone?
Cutting a gemstone greatly enhances its value, brilliance, and appeal. A well-cut gem captures light in a way no rough stone ever could. It becomes a personal treasure—one that sparkles with both natural beauty and the story of your adventure.
Cut Stone Pricing
Prices for gem cutting start at just $20.00 per carat and vary based on:
-
Stone type
-
Size
-
Shape & facet style
-
Cutting difficulty (based on hardness or internal flaws)
Once we evaluate your rough gemstone, we’ll provide a firm price quote before work begins. Our gem cutters always aim to deliver the largest, cleanest, and most brilliant stone possible, working around any natural inclusions or imperfections.
We’re happy to cut gems found at our mines or brought in from other locations. You can even ship your gemstones to us for evaluation and cutting—our expert staff will walk you through the entire process and ship your finished stone right back to you.
