There will always be another skill that needs to be improved, another piece of equipment to learn, another technique to master. One can easily stumble into the rabbit hole of material science when trying to understand how to perfect polishing, or into the warrens of jewelry making, or gemology. It is a terribly exciting pursuit, but it can also be overwhelming, especially when you’re just starting out.

We love how much growth there has been in the last few years in the field, and we especially want to support new faceters. In this section of the website, we’ve got resources tuned to those just starting out (or thinking of starting out). Also, feel free to reach out with any questions you have, and we’re happy to share our thoughts and experiences. Good luck and enjoy the ride!
