What Makes a Cabochon?

A Gemstone cut Cabochon has a highly polished rounded or slightly domed convex top with no faceting and a flat or slightly domed base. Some Cabochons may even have undulating surfaces.

What are Gemstones That are Cut Differently Called?

A Gemstone with a flat bottom and a faceted domed top are Rose-Cut Gems. A gemstone with a faceted pavilion, but featuring the smooth domed top of a cabochon are known as Buff-Top Gemstones.

What Gems are Available as Cabochons?

Gemstone Cabochons may be cut into any shape, though oval is the most frequent. The term, 'Cabochon' comes from the French 'Caboche' meaning small dome.

What Colors are Available and How Should They be Used in Jewelry?

My experience with gemselect was awesome so far. I had a few questions about their website and making orders and they replied quickly and were happy to help. I have not received the items I ordered yet as I just ordered them this morning. Although, I truly feel I am going to be a very happy customer once I do receive my items. Gemselect guarantees all their items and have a great return policy just incase. The have a vast selection of all kinds of stones and not to mention their prices are much better than some other websites. Thanks Gemselect I’ll be doing business here from now on!

Great selection. Love the many learning features like articles and gem information. Prices competitive for natural stones. I do miss not having a selection of lab-made stones, CZ’s, etc, which are useful when price and cost are factors.
