This was cut as a pendant. Hung from the ends in an opened back sterling construct. The stone ended up being a bit larger than planned. The pattern was pretty demanding in terms of where to quit grinding.
I assume the jeweler will balance the stone to the build.....

I have only cut one. After I learned how toxic it is, I quit. Do you wear a mask?
