Gemstone Cutting Expertise

GemrockPeru Generalmanager Stefan Austermühle

Stefan Austermühle is not only the CEO of Gemrock, but also our Master Gemcutter, Gemstone Cutting Expert, and Product designer. Stefan laid the groundwork for his lapidary art by getting trained by old-school US-based master cabochon cutters. He always attends our Lapidary Cutting-Service Clients personally and supports their product development with expert advice based on his extensive cutting experience with many Peruvian and other materials from around the world. He often still takes the time to cut the unusual shapes or rare materials himself. He is also responsible for training and knowledge transfer to our in-house gemcutters and for production oversight and quality control.
