A polished almandine stone . Carbuncle (/ ˈ k ɑːr b ʌ ŋ k əl /) is another name for a deep red almandine gemstone that has been cut with a smooth, convex face in a method called cabochon. [1] Traditionally, the term referred to any red gemstone, most often a red garnet. [2] Carbuncles and their chimeras have spanned three millennia.
Garnet sand is also used for water filtration media. As an abrasive, garnet can be broadly divided into two categories; blasting grade and water jet grade. The garnet, as it is mined and collected, is crushed to finer grains; all pieces which are larger than 60 mesh (250 micrometers) are normally used for sand blasting.
A channel setting is a method whereby stones are suspended between two bars or strips of metal, called channels. Typically, a line of small stones set between two bars is called a channel setting, and a design where the bars cross the stones is called a bar set. The channel is a variation of a "U" shape, with two sides and a bottom.

Planning for the cutting began in February, 2018, and continued for six weeks. Tuzlukov used a 3D model of the rough stone to create a synthetic yttrium aluminium garnet duplicate for the purpose of practicing the cutting. He also practiced on a 31.57 carat tsavorite, working nine to eleven hours a day for five days on the smaller stone.
