Cracks are due to crush processing. Cracks like this appear when you heat a crystal with an alcohol lamp, and when it reaches a certain high temperature, place it in cold water to cool it down quickly.
The way in which cracks form differs slightly depending on the timing of rapid cooling of the crystal.
Canna Oshiro
After working as an assistant of prop and decorations for commercial films, Canna Oshiro studied under Yukio Shimizu who is the first class gem polisher/cutter, and creates loose by the traditional technique of “tesuri” being inherited in Kofu district.
