I thought at > first this was a mis-spelling but you wrote it this way several times. Sorry, a bit of jargon there-"Cab" is short for "Cabochon" which is a style of gem cutting. Instead of having flat facets the stone has a smooth dome shape-much more a pre-renaissance cut for stones. In this case the smooth domed quartz crystal provides a "window" to protect the item in the reliquery but allow it to be seen. (There are several ways of mounting them everything from soldering in a bezel to using an engraver to raise an edge. wilelm the smith Date: Mon, 22 Feb 1999 10:37:54 -0600 From: Kathleen Keeler To: sca-arts@raven.cc.ukans.edu Subject: Re: Sunstone/Iceland Spar/Andalucite Edited by Mark S.

14. Gemstone Cutting & Lapidary Techniques -- Gemstone Pulse
    Gemstone Cutting lapidary techniques. Several common techniques are usedin gemcutting or lapidary work such as the following 1. Sawing 2. Grinding  
    http://www.gempulse.com/gem-stone/cutlapidarytech-gemstones.asp
    
    Extractions: Sawing a piece of smoky quartz. In most gem sawing, a thin circular blade usually composed of steel, copper, or a phosphor bronze alloy impregnated along the outer edge with diamond grit and rotating at several thousand surface feet per minute literally scratches its way through a gemstone. A liquid such as oil or water is used to wash away cutting debris and keep the stone and the saw blade from overheating, which could cause damage to both the stone and the sawblade.

    Extractions: You will have noticed that this page and those that follow have changed. If continuing you may notice that some pages will take longer to appear (up to about 20 seconds) because; (a) there will be more use of pictures to illustrate rocks, minerals and lapidary techniques. (b) there will be more variation and experiment in web design of these pages. Visitors may find that some pages don't work or appear correctly on their terminals. If you experience any technical problems I would appreciate an E-mail ( Roger ) with an outline of the trouble. Active links have completed articles, non active links indicate topic in preparation. WARNING: In the following pages you will find explanations in detail of various lapidary methods. LAPIDARY IS DANGEROUS. Although I have a strong engineering background, and fully appreciate the dangers of using machinery, I still have accidents. Lapidary is one of the most dirtiest processes that you could come across, and if you know anything about Toxicology you wouldn't touch it with a Barge Poll. Each mineral has different hazards associated with cutting and polishing. The list of health problems you could trigger is frightening. So, if you too are MAD like me, DON'T BLAME ME OR THE SOCIETY for any problems to your health if you have ago. Please read all the books you can on the subject and then think again!

20. Heron Glass - Chevron Techniques

    http://www.heronglass.com/materials/chevrontechniques.htm
    
    Extractions: Home The Artists Gallery List Calendar ... Limited Edition Pieces Our Chevron Beads differ from most antique and contemporary Chevrons in the materials and techniques used to make them. Molten clear glass and solid bars of colored glass are the starting materials, differing from the traditional method of having pots of molten colored glass available. The advantage of our method is seen in the unique and unusual combinations of different colors in a single bead. All Chevron Beads are made in two stages. The first uses glassblowing techniques, and consists of building up layers of color on a blowpipe, then stretching that gob into a long tube. The second stage uses lapidary techniques to turn the cooled tube into finished beads. In both stages, we have taken the Chevron in unique directions. The glassblowing stage of the Chevron process begins with a thick-walled bubble on the end of a blowpipe. Layers of color are added to the outside of this bubble in four possible ways. The first way, gathering, is the traditional method of dipping the bubble into a pot of molten colored glass. The second way is to heat a chunk of glass on a rod until it is molten, dripping it onto the bubble while still soft. This way results in an appearance similar to the gathering method. A third way results in thinner layers of color, and is accomplished by blowing a thin bubble and wrapping it around the original bubble. The fourth way is done by applying pre-formed glass canes to the surface. We use some or all of these four layering methods in a single bead.
