The majority of gemstones are formed by metamorphism. This is when minerals are forced together under great pressure and heat usually by tectonic plates moving underneath each other. The minerals are forced together and they metamorphose into different minerals, sometimes without melting.

Using a saw, other cutting tool or  chisel and hammer, our lapidarist makes kerfs to split the rocks into separate pieces. Some rocks  pieces are buffed and polished,othersare left in their natural rough state.
