Reply to comment by CrustalTrudger in can gemstones be melted into a gradient? by Acceptable_Shift_247

Do you think you could get the "effect" that OP wants by properly cutting two different types of stones to appear to fit together like they're one?

One stone beginning thin where the other will be thick and slowly reversing that until we get to a single material. Could work if both gems are really clear?

Probably better than my idea of cutting the high temperature gem into a halve band and encasing it in the lower melting one. Then you only have to cut a ring from that stone. I dont know if you can make a gradient that way tho.
