Gems can be put through lapidary boxes multiple times if the user changes their mind. As of February 2018, lapidary boxes will properly handle uncut gems to remove the "uncut" adjective.

			==Stacking descriptions with uncut Gems==

			[[Lapidary box]]es usually modify the article (first 15) of the gem they cut, but with "uncut" gems they will modify the adjective (middle 15) instead. [[Gem cutter]]s always modify the article (first 15), but will remove "uncut" if it is present.

			With uncut gems, you can combine two lapidary box patterns -- or a lapidary box pattern and a gem cutter pattern -- to put two descriptions on a single gem. To do this:

			#Use a lapidary box set to the correct pattern for the ''adjective'' (middle 15) first. This '''must''' be a lapidary box; it cannot be a gem cutter.
			#Put the resulting gem in a lapidary box ''or'' gem cutter with the correct pattern for the ''article'' (first 15).

			For example, using a lapidary box set to "iridescent" on "an,uncut,diamond" yields "an,iridescent,diamond". Using a gem cutter with a star-shaped pattern on the resulting gem yields a "a star-shaped,iridescent,diamond"
