Hi Jeff/Neil. (I missed the earlier part of this).

    The more polish behind the stone the better. You have at least a
    chance of brightening it up with rhodium. You have no chance if it
    is dull. In a few weeks the rough metal will have dirt stuck to it
    and they won't be able to clean it off but it will clean easily if
    it is polished. It might help reflect light, but mainly if the stone
    is shallow.

Phillip
