Synthetic Emerald experience?

Jeff: https://www.whitesgems.com/

Gene: https://www.precisiongem.com/LabCreatedGems/LabPrecisionGems.html

I found the former to be super nice and patient, but wait time is much much longer and has a $500 minimum. I would work with him again.

The latter is cheaper than the former, and wait time is shorter. Customer service? You decide. Also, if he happens to have something during his gem drop emails that you like, go for it, but they sell out fast, like within a few minutes, and I don't like to make impulse buys like that. There are many other lapidaries doing custom precision cuts on Etsy, Reddit, and IG who are friendly and also affordable, and they all have hydrothermal emeralds.

Thanks for the detailed reply!
 
@SJEsper sorry, my lab Emerald is still with Jeff, however, this is the pic he sent me next to the Imperial Topaz that he had cut for me for your information.

Attached below is the pic from his FB page that prompted me to ask him to cut one for me:
