See-through crystal/gem for Headpiece to the Staff of Ra

[kalkamel]

Hi everyone. I just got myself a resin printer and was planning to print out a headpiece to the Staff of Ra I found on Thingiverse. Was just wondering if anyone know what I can use for the see-though gem on the headpiece? Any help is appreciated.

The original gems were standard yellow topaz colored glas gems made from Swarowski. But they are out of production there meanwhile. I think you can find similar glas stones made from other companies.

Thanks for the insight, Pascal. Is there a specific term I should look for?

The easiest way would probably be to determine what the size is and look for that diameter and the correct cut. I believe it is a 12mm diameter, single cut, half cut or "flat back". A single cut gem means it has an octagonal face facet with 8 side facets. But, single cut gems are not very common.

You are going to want a "2000 Swarovski Flatback" if you want it to be screen accurate.

This is just a site I found, but you get something similar all over the internet, but just check your sizes.

I think the hard part is going to be the color to be honest.
