The basic distinction is made between cabochon, where the gemstone is cut into a convex shape, and faceted, where the surface of the gemstone is cut into different facets. When grinding, various properties of the stone are considered, including the color, color distribution, inclusions, special light effects, dispersion and fracture and wear surfaces. They are processed into necklaces, earrings, bracelets and many other jewelry, but the gemstones are also used in industry for processing.
