Huynh - Beginner Tourm
From The Gemology Project
Beginner Tourm - Michiko Huynh
This is an easy-to-cut tourmaline design. It is especially good with a tourmaline crystal with the closed C-axis. It hides the undesirable C color and gives a high recovery.
It also works well with quartz.
There are only 19 facets including the girdle facets. Cut it in a 1 x 1.5 rectangle as close as you can. If you want to cut this design with a 64 index gear, simply divide the index numbers by 1.5.
