Welcome

Welcome to the New Mexico Facetor’s Guild. We have regular meetings on the second Tuesday of the odd-numbered months (January, March, May, July, September, and November). We currently meet at the North Domingo Baca Multigenerational Center and conduct workshops at the Placitas Library

The purpose of the New Mexico Faceters Guild is to bring together persons who are interested in faceting or faceted stones. We promote the art and science of faceting and provide a means of education and improvement in faceting skills. Finally, we provide a means of communication­ between those persons involved in or interested in faceting as a hobby.
