CabochonHome • Clarity and Cut • Cabochon Dark-colored stones gemstones, including those that are translucent or opaque, such as opal and jade and are often polished rather than faceted. This cut is also used to produce such effects as cats-eye and star effect. In addition, stones that are heavily included may be cut in a cabochon cut as it is a better cut for hiding these unattractive inclusions. Cabochons have a smooth, rounded surface with no facets. The bottom of the stone is flat or nearly flat.
