In the gem trade, faceters are the hands that turn rough gems into radiant beauty. Yet few people know the process to make this happen, or meet the human hands behind the finished jewels. 

Join ANZA for the second installment of The Journey Behind the Jewel, where we go from the mines of Tanzania and Kenya to the cutting wheel. This time, three of ANZA’s extraordinary faceters - Beth Stier, Nadine Marshall, and Megan Szczecko - share what it's really like to master a craft built on precision, practice, and patience in a field where women have long been the exception rather than the rule. 

We'll talk artistry, visibility, and what it means to put a name to the hands behind every finished stone.

Beautiful and beneficial, from the rough to the brilliant.
