About Rupert's Precision Gemcutting
Rupert's Precision Gemcutting is a lapidary and jewelry shop in south Carson City that grew out of rock hunting: in its own words, a rockhound turned lapidary specialist. Gemstones and minerals are faceted or shaped in the shop and set into one-of-a-kind pieces.
The stones it works include Nevada opal, natural turquoise and Oregon sunstone. Besides finished jewelry, the shop sells rock and mineral specimens and gemstone rough for anyone who wants material of their own.
Its services include faceting, cabochon cutting and cutting stones that customers bring in, as well as custom jewelry and repairs, which makes it a stop for collectors who want their own finds cut and set.
Sales are in the store, and special pieces can be shipped across the country.
