Final facet carve.
Fiddling with facet angles. I was worried the form wouldn't show in certain angles or would look dull and disjointed.

It had to look dynamic, flowing. Once the light hit a facet it would add to and clarify the main shape.

The carvers did a pretty damn good job.

Early carving R&D process showed some materials weren't suitable for this type of carve.
Rose quartz, and Black Obsidian were the only 2 materials we commissioned.
