This design was originally supposed to be an experiment in 120 indices, but turned into a highly accurate representation of Starmie, a water Pokemon. This design is fast and easy to cut, and should deepen color. I prefer this in amethyst, but it works in materials from quartz to rutile (RI = 1.54 - 2.62)) with no changes. Suggested size = 6-12 mm
