Available from Mt. Mist Products: Definitive books on carving gemstones written by the recognized Father of American Gemcarving, Henry Hunt.
These two books cover all facets of gemcarving from tool selection and fabrication to choosing gemstones, techniques for carving and polishing and research into carving styles of American Masters. Nowhere else is there this much information on Gemstone design and fabrication.
If you don't have these, you're missing a lot of information. |
