Polishing Stones

Basic Idea

`Stone' in my pages means an ore of jewel. The objective of polishing a stone is the polishing itself. Not making a jewel. The reasons that I polish a jewel ore are the beauty of the result and its hardness.

I try to polish a stone better making use of the original form. The original form of stone often takes me to the end, though I sometimes want to polish a stone as a certain figure.

My polishing method is original. I have not learned a formal method. I polish by my hands, and use no machine. So I can not make a jewel like one in a jewel store. It's all right, because my objective is the polishing itself.

Topics

It was September 1997 that I polished a stone at first time.

The later topic is a newer one. If you want to know my current method, see the topic ``polishing stones by hands(summary)".
