Cabochon cut gems for unique jewelry

When most people think of jewelry, they tend to imagine faceted gemstone jewelry. Many perceive cabochons to be low quality, since most high-quality material will be faceted.

Gemselect has the largest selection of cabochon cut gems on the net! Let’s take a look at some of the more popular and colorful gem types.

Opal
