Journey to build the industry/discipline of “Faceting Art”
———–
While the gem world is increasingly troubled by fake stones, the economy is going down and faceters are often less recognized and less respected by stone traders; then the subject of “Faceting Art” will be a new, safer, more humane and beautiful step.
1: Not replaced by AI or robotics
2: There is no war/fight, jealousy, or envy among colleagues because everyone can create their own design language.
3: Semi-precious stones
– faceters will not have to worry about being fooled by fake stones. Besides, compensation if there is a mistake or damage to the customer’s stone is still gentler and easier than with expensive stones.
– No need to worry about stone weight or loss.
– Easy to find high quality stones such as large size, clean, no cracks, no bubbles…
– Faceters will have more voice and can earn more profits from the workmanship, meticulousness and artistry of the stone.
4: Many career options.
If this subject can be introduced into schools such as vocational schools, colleges and universities, students after graduation will have full skills and experience to work in new fields as follows:
– International standard faceting expert with superior advantages such as not needing much training time, and skills to control scattering and stone color
– Art expert: Sharpens unique art, gives it as a gift, exhibits or sends it to a museum, participates in auctions.
– Facet diagram design expert: If students are not qualified to learn cutting or buy a machine, they can still become people who design Facet diagrams for sale or printing, and exploit images from designs.
– Expert in assessing the quality of faceted gemstones and expert in managing galleries and museums of art faceted gemstones.
– Expert in teaching or becoming a judge of faceting and art faceting design competitions.
5: Opportunity to welcome the world
– When the subject “Faceting Art” is taught in colleges and universities, Vietnam will become the first country in the world to have this subject. This will create opportunities to attract international students to Vietnam to study and work.
– First generation students in this subject will have the opportunity to become teaching experts or world experts. , cooperates with international schools, jewelry and gemstone companies, museums, exhibitions and auctions.
Viet Gems hopes to continue to receive sponsorship, help and support from everyone to continue the work of building this subject and industry code.
Best regards,
