Gram Book 1 - This triangle has a lot of facets and should be cut in a medium to large size stone. This is really designed for man-made materials. It is a harder design to cut than some, pay attention to the meets. Any color material in light to medium color, 2-16cts. Cut in refractive index 1.78 to 2.14 (82%) with no changes.
