Here is a stone I did this year on a snowed in day in Jan. This was cut on a old 1970s style Taylor Faceting Machine. Clear Topaz with frosted bottom facets.

Thanks for complements, here is another Snowflake done with glass and a piece of amethyst glued to bottom as the cullet. The next picture is a Dark Star cut done in topaz.
