Believe it or not there are some schools out there which teach faceting. Jean received her training at one of our local Community Colleges in 1990. Many Gem & Mineral Clubs offer courses in faceting also. You may find that some faceters out there offer apprenticeships. There are some excellent faceting instruction books available for sale which you may use to teach yourself the art as well as instruction videos. To begin with, read Jean’s article on faceting, Gem faceting: Romancing The Stone on our web site.
