What our customers say
Don't just take our word for it
“I bought a Facetron because of their reputation for precision and because they offered such good value compared to their competitors. The Facetron is an intuitive machine and makes it easy to learn how to cut gems.”
“For the last 23 years as a professional gem cutter, I have spent almost every day with my Facetron. With my Facetron I have won a Premaster Class First and a Master Class Third awards at The United States Faceting Guild single stone competitions. Thank you for a wonderful and seamless machine.”
“After a factory visit many years ago I consider the Facetron to be by far the best of the faceting machines. I have been using a Facetron as an award winning professional gem cutter since 2008. I find that with the Facetron I can work faster and to higher tolerances than with any comparable machine. The Facetron is simple and convenient hence why it was my machine of choice for the Guinness World Record stones I faceted.”
