    A LOT of colored gemstones are cut in this country, however most are
    purchased for specialized pieces because they are more expensive
    than the production cut stones of overseas. If anyone wants name of
    american faceters I would be happy to supply them. You will get
    excellent quality cut stones, but of course you pay for that quality. 

    Unfortunately most don't know the difference between a well cut
    stone and one that looks like a piece of shiny plastic.
