Best Answer

Precious, and semi precious stones, are cut and polished by specialist jewellers called a Gem Cutter or Lapidary. It is their job to take the rough stone, remove any unsuitable material, then trim or cut the gem into pieces usable as single stones. They can then clean, shape, polish, and decide the exact position and angle the stones should be set or faceted.
