Special cut Sleeping Beauty Turquoise
with marquise shaped hole

A jeweler in Boston was designing a special piece for their customer. They wanted a high quality Sleeping Beauty Turquoise cut in a special shape. Their customer also wanted a marquise shaped Diamond to be set in the middle of the Turquoise.

A unique shape of Sleeping Beauty Turquoise and a white gold bezel sitting nex to the stone.

To make a hole in this unique shape, we need to do a lot of hand work with pointed Diamond abrasive files.
