Jeff,

    oopsies, I should have been clearer. I'm not talking about the back
    side of the mounting. My concern is to maximize reflection back into
    the stone, from the pavilion side. 

    At first thought it might seem that a high polish would reflect the
    most light but I've noticed it is somewhat selective in what
    direction light is reflected. I was wondering if a rougher finish
    might disperse available light more evenly.
