This is my first foray into the N types. I didn't realize just how many steps these crowns would take! This stone has an interesting and lively reflection pattern, but it does take quite a bit of effort to get there. Watch out on the crown - there are LOTS of facets that have to meet two unique meetpoints at the same time, and that can get difficult. Can be cut in materials from quartz to rutile (RI = 1.54 - 2.62) with no changes.
