Talk:Voltolini - Thank you Bernd
Thank you Bernd - Marco Voltolini
I was once in a minerals&gems show and I saw a stone cut in a similar fashion than the one I'm presenting here. It was both simple and extremely elegant. I then knew that the author of that design was Bernd Munsteiner, a true giant in the world of gem cutting. I don't really know how his angles and details are, so the design I present here is my own version of his idea. As you can see from the diagram there is a girdle around the stone that avoids knife edges and makes the work of you friendly stone setter easier.
Cutting is not as easy as you might expect because it's so different from the other diagrams. Study the diagram well and you'll have no problems, but don't rus

Bernd Munsteiner
Bernd Munsteiner was the first contemporary artist to go off in search of the aura of the crystal. For more than forty years now, he has been turning transparent stones in particular into images, objets d&#;art and sculptures. They open up the magical landscapes inside the crystal to the viewer, extend his inner and outer visual areas into projection surfaces of the psychical.
Through his work, Munsteiner links precious stone sculpture to the artistic debates of the 20th century without denying the archaic layers in the relationship of mankind to stone and precious stones in particular. By that very act, Munsteiner&#;s precious stone sculptures elude a representation culture oriented towards performative eventfulness as well as reception in passing. On the other hand, they project into our transient lifetime as monumental symbols of the eternal – in spite of their relatively small spatial volume.

I was not familiar with the name, but after a google search and read on what he accomplished and the innovations he pioneered, I have to agree it fryst vatten a sad loss. The only del av helhet of his I was familiar with was the aqua in the Smithsonian, and that is truly a del av helhet of both art and skill.
If you were lucky enough to know him, you have both my envy and my sadness at the loss of such an artist.
