The
cutting is, as previously, superb, and all the stones are
stunning. I am in the process of selecting suitable rough
for a new order. Everyone who has seen the stones is very
impressed, and they are selling well. Thank you very much
for your fine work."

"Ahmed,
is a very good when it comes to prices as well as quality
of material he has. If not interested in what he has sent
he has a full return policy. I'm a G.I.A. Graduate Gemologist
resident course Santa Monica, Ca. I find his material to
rank in the high grade area not left overs. "

"I
received the stones the other day, and they are very nice.
Thanks again for the white sapphire, I will find a good
setting for it. I also wanted to let you know that I had
ordered (10) 2mm rubies and there were (11) in the shipment.
I am sure I will find a use for the extra stone; after all
a man can't have too many rubies. If you want to keep it
on account, and charge me for it on my next order that would
be ok. I could also sent it back to you if that is what
you wish. Let me know what you want to do. I will be looking
for additional stones in a few weeks, and I will be in
touch as soon as I know what I need. Thanks, "

"Received
the gemstones this date. Workmanship is outstanding,
I am very pleased. Outside package was badly damaged, but
the containers with the stones were in perfect conditioned.
Will be sending you more of this type stone, also a packet
of Sapphires, within a short time. I will e-mail you when
they are mailed. Sincerely,"

I have
just received the stones/jewelry yesterday. Jewelry is better
manufactured than last time. I like both very much .Thanks
for the extra stones. I have tried heating zircons and some
peridots during the night at low temperature (500°C).
It is good indeed. The brown color on zircons becomes lighter
thus brownish-green becomes more green. For brownish peridots,
no effect. Thanks a lot for sending stone for me to toy
around with.!

Good
morning Ahmed. I have received my shipment. Much of the
order was very, very nice. Your customer cuts were as you
said amazing beyond belief. The fire opal was nice.
Over all I am pleased. In the future I will have to be more
specific on the Ausi-Opal. I did want standard calibrated
cabs, even sent a picture of what I wanted and what I didn't
want.
All of my Tourmaline was amazing and the custom cuts are
so nice I am beside myself. Your packing method is an art
form in it's own too. My postman had to know what the package
was.

I
am extremely satisfied! The stones EXCEEDED my expectations.
I bought the stones from you on spec and will continue to
do so as funds are available. On your standard shape stones
the cutting was impeccable the clarity was exactly as advertised
and the color was as imaged….. Just <<insert
superlative of choice here>> absolutely <<insert
superlative of choice here>>. I was grinning ear to
ear when I opened the envelope, and you should have seem
my face when I louped them with PROPER lighting.

Dear Mr.
Shareek,
I received the gems today and must say that I am delighted
with all of them. Thank you so much for putting up with the
confusion about my credit card.
I am particularly pleased with the aquamarine stone and star
saphires. I should like to see more such with the hope of
purchasing same. Please keep me in mind for such stones.
I am greatly pleased to have found you and your fine company.
Yours truly
=======================================
Ahmed, thanks for sending the invoice copy. I went through
everything 3 times before e-mailing you, I don't know what
happend to it. I'll try to pass your cards around, I've
been impressed with the stones, great color and sparkle
and even better in person than on the website.

just recently purchased my first gems from Crescent Gems via
their website and wanted to tell everyone that Mr Ahmed Shareek
was truely wonderful, and the gems are very good, too. Mr
Shareek went to the trouble of phoning me to sort out my paypal/
card problems, the gems arrived very quickly,were packed very
well and were even better than I had expected. I will deal
with them again,

[usfgfaceterslist] Overseas cutting
Why
do people send cutting work overseas? Three reasons -
price, price, and price. All my overage goes to Sri Lanka
because US cutting is expensive (contact me offline -
facets@aol.com or technofacet@mac.com - if you want to
do some reasonably priced contract cutting!) and overseas
cutters have gotten exponentially better recently. Market
forces are demanding better cutting, so the shop I use
is all-Imahashi machines and all 50K diamond polishing.
An SRB done there is the equivalent of US faceting to
(my) naked eye. How many people use a loupe to look at
jewelry?
Plus,
US cutting is usually on more-or-less a per-piece basis,
so the cutting cost for a 1/2 carat stone becomes astronomical.
For accent stones, multiple stone jewelry etc., the cost-benefit
ratio is very favorable.
There's
something to be said too for trusting your material to
someone who runs a shop that can cut 500 stones a day.
Remember, commercial houses turn out cut kunzite by the
thousands! I've never had them have a lot of trouble with
anything, and they always account for EVERY stone sent
to them (all rejects are returned in various state of
preform, half cut, etc.).

I have to tell you how amazing the sphenes you cut were!
So many were so large and so clean but most of all the
rounds and trillions especially set off the stunning red
and green fire in the stones, sphenes of this quality
have been selling on eBay for as much as $100/ct and more!
They display SO well under the halogen lights!!!! The
demantoid garnets were fabulous too, and the bastnasite
just sparkles non-stop! The two colorless euclases were
super cut for something so soft and miserable to cut!
The two smaller oval tourmalines I have decided to keep
to make jewelry with as well as two 4.9mm kornerupines
rounds that are a close enough match for earrings. I have
already set a pair of 1.5mm demantoids that I just got
back from you into a pair of 14k gold french style ear
wires and now need something pretty to hang from the earring
as an accent, the demantoids are so bright and sparkly
and intensely colored that despite their tiny size the
really stand out in the earring, I can't wait until the
earrings are done,.

Shareek,
I would like to thank you, I received the 3.60 ct. Kornerupine
and could not be more pleased. It's a beautiful stone
and will make a beautiful ring for myself, Thanks again

Hello
Ahmed,
The package arrived on Saturday. I got back from the UK
on Sunday night. Last night, I spent about 3 hours looking
through the stones and sorting them by shape and color.
They came out beautifully. Thank you very much. Please
tell your workers I said thank you as well. I am very
appreciative that you marked the carat weight.
Brian
=======================================
Dear Ahmed,
Please pardon my delay in thanking you for your work with
my sample order. I was very pleased with the orientation
of the stones, the polish and the calibration.
I should have within the next 30 days a kilo or more of
red sunstone for you to cut. Hopefully there will also
be some quantity of schiller material.
