[For kids] Let's try gem polishing "Do-it-yourself rough stone polishing set" (includes fluorite and gemstone icing cookies) *Subject to gemstone polishing contest*

The `` Do-it-yourself rough stone polishing set '', which has been very popular every time it has been released, will be sold again with new contents.

This time, I chose fluorite for polishing rough stones for children. Due to its low hardness, it is easy to polish and has a beautiful translucent green color. Just like last time, the set includes all the tools necessary for polishing jewelry , so you can start working on it right away.


In addition, as a Christmas present from Caratz, we will give children a bonus gemstone icing cookie (cookie with a vortex cut amethyst design created by American polishing craftsman KEN) that looks cute and is delicious to eat. I would be happy if many children could experience the beauty of jewelry during winter vacation and New Year's holidays at home.

[Explanation of how to polish]
*Please watch the video for a more detailed explanation.

1. Soak the stone in water, then

First, polish it with a diamond file . There is no functional difference between the diamond file (white) and (red) in terms of polishing surface. (White) has a wide surface and is easy for children to use. Please use it when you want to make a large cut. (Red) is recommended when you want to carve detailed surfaces.

2. Fix the water-resistant paper in a wooden binder and polish the stone in a ``no'' shape while soaking it in water. The lower the number on the waterproof paper, the coarser the texture. Polish while changing from paper with a small number to paper with a large number (from coarse paper to fine paper).

3. Polish it to your liking and it's complete.

[Precautions when polishing]

・When sharpening, there is a risk of scratching and damaging your hand. Please be careful when polishing.

- Rinse off the abrasive that comes out while polishing with water from time to time, remove moisture with tissue or kitchen paper, etc., and check the surface being polished. If you continue polishing without rinsing with water, the polishing agent remaining on the surface may damage the surface of the jewelry. Please change the water accordingly.

*Please note that the photo of the rough stone is just an example, and you cannot choose the color or shape.
