Thank You and Farewell<\/h1><\/div>

After being in the trade for 43 years, I have made the decision to close down Gems by Gregory. Cutting for the Trade as well as for private individuals has been an honor and privilege. It is said that one’s knowledge of this industry never ends, and truer words were never spoken.<\/p>\n

Faceting either a precious gem or even a common material such as quartz demands your complete attention. I often tell people that faceting takes me to a world where nothing else exists except that facet you are cutting.<\/p>\n

So in closing, I thank all my customers who, over the decades, have supported our growth in the Lapidary field, and I wish you all the very best.<\/p>\n

Sincerely yours,
\nGreg Russell
\nPresident, Gems by Gregory<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
