Do you have a favorite cut of stone that you love most?  Mine would probably be briolette or checkerboard cuts, but there aren't currently many offerings in stock, so it must not be in vogue right now.  I hope they'll start offering more of it in Steel By Design & the bronze lines, if they don't want to do so in silver or gold because of the price-point being too high for many customers.  I miss seeing that stone cut more often.  What's your favorite(s)?

 

Here are some examples for those wondering what the briolette & checkerboard cuts look like (just random images from the net):

My favorite cut depends on the stone.  A good lapidary will know how to bring out the beauty of every stone.
