Falling lapidary rough symbolizes the unadulterated beauty of nature, ready to be honed into flawless diamonds. Each piece of this rough material has its own distinct qualities and appeal, and it is available in a range of sizes, shapes, and colors.
With its muted colors and rough, unrefined surface, tumbling lapidary rough might not seem unusual at first. But these seemingly unremarkable stones conceal beauty that is just waiting to be discovered. These coarse fragments eventually become smoother and more formed during the tumble process, exposing their actual colors and patterns.
The rough stones are placed in a revolving barrel with water and abrasive grit to begin the tumbling process. The stones are gradually worn down over time by gentle tumbles, which polishes the rough edges and blemishes.
