This is a new design that has 198 facets that I thought was going to be a challenge to cut, but was much easier than I anticipated. I would have uploaded a video, but haven’t figured out quite how to do that yet.

That is beautiful! I don't do this kind of work but I like admiring the work done. Largely because of all the clever cuts one can make to get the gem to display a certain way. This piece is a great example of that!
