Some people admire beauty and others create it. Fallbrook resident Meg Berry does both, with love. A nationally respected gem cutter and carver, Berry recently brought home nine awards from the 2013 San Diego County Fair in Del Mar.
When asked about her notable passion for gems, Berry said, “Every natural stone is different but we have the potential to make it look beautiful. How can I not be fascinated with that?”
Berry has been cutting gems for 38 years and her passion only seems to have increased over time.
“I work for my art; I’ve learned a lot and gotten better with each cut I’ve made.”
