Gemstones in Cutting:

Our specialist in concave cutting has 2 more Ametrines - these take a week of constant work to complete, and unfortunately get put on the cutters back burner so he can work on quicker items.  Therefore, may be many months before one is completed.   Currently have been waiting for over 6 months.
