The photos were taken with the stones on white paper which may give them a slightly more transparency than actual.
The side of the stones has been polished.
The top is flat and is left semi polished so not to give an annoying mirror reflection.
The edges are left sharp, but can easily be de sharpened with a fine diamond file or emery file without needing polishing.
Inclusions have been left to give the stones some character and also to clearly show it as a natural stone.
