The Gemcutters Craft is a podcast about the art, culture, and occasional absurdity of cutting gemstones.

Your hosts, gemcutters and teachers Justin K Prim and Michael Holmes, travel the world for gem and jewelry shows, conferences, and gemcutting events, sharing what they see along the way and talking about what's happening in the faceting world.

Each episode blends current events, cutting techniques, industry news, curious discoveries, new tools and technology, and hot takes on the hot topics gemcutters love to argue about.

Part shop talk, part travelogue, part news, part spirited debate, all from inside the world of gemcutting.

    E1: A New Beginning and a Reintroduction
    Sep 7 2026

    Welcome to the new season of The Gemcutters Craft podcast. This is season 3 if you've been with us since the Interview Webinars of 2020/2021, and the Interview Podcasts of 2025. Now it's mid 2026 and we've got a brand new format and a brand new co-host, gemcutter and author Michael Holmes.

    This introductory episode serves as an introduction to your hosts and well as announcement of the format change.

    This is now a public podcast, but all the patrons will be getting it a week before it goes public. Thank you all so much for your continued support even though the previous version of the podcast died due to my hectic work and travel schedule. My hope for this new format is that it will be easier and less work, so that should prevent me from getting bogged down with other things and neglecting it.

    Enjoy the new format of The Gemcutters Craft Podcast.

    xoxo
    Justin
