The skill with which a stone is cut should be taken into considera­tion in valuing it, although this is a matter upon which only an expert is competent to give an opinion. Of two stones of the same weight and equal quality, one may be worth ten times as much as the other because more skilfully cut. Further, the exact qualities desirable in any particular gem are points to be learned by long skill and experience, and stones possessing these qualities command much higher prices than the ordinary.
