Greetings All,
I was just wondering if anyone knows where I can find any
aquamarine, light blue sapphire, or any similar color of stone cut in
a hexagon shape. Preferably some where in the 4-6mm range. I’m not
particular about the actual style of the cut. My primary concern is
just trying to find a six-sided, symmetrical cut. If anyone has any
leads, I would greatly appreciate the help! Thanks!
Sincerely,

Erich,
I cut material in symmetrical hexagons all the time. many different
patterns, but it is one of my favorite shapes. I can be contacted
off-list at @Wayne_Emery1 and would be happy to help.

You could find a hexagonal cut aquamarine through me or probably
many other faceters who are willing to cut it for you. The size range
you mention would be fairly easy to find rough for, at least in
aquamarine up to a medium blue color. It depends on how many are
needed, too, if matched color is a requirement. Sapphire is another
story.
