You can choose between three designs: [spell=198085], [spell=198129], [spell=198130].
No matter what you choose you will be able to buy other two designs from [npc=100500].
To complete the quest play jewelcrafting minigame - click on Tiffany's Carving Machine which is on the table and click on crystal shards until there is no more left. You can rotate the gem.


Here is my main Jewelcrafting post: [spell=201704].

Description

Seeing as how you've been quite a reliable resource, I'm willing to teach you how to cut a Deadly Deep Amber. We'll be using my cutting tool to do this, so whenever you're ready, go ahead and sit yourself in front of it.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Swift VengeanceLevel 10-45

    I swear, when I find him... <Tiffany catches your eye and regains her composure.> <name>, I need you to track down my FORMER associate, Harold Winston. I doubt he's gotten far, given our location. When you find him, I would like you to recover the stolen property and return it to me.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Raising the DrogbarLevel 10-45

    Word travels fast around Dalaran, <name>. And the latest word is that there's a master jewelcrafter somewhere in Val'sharah. I want you to go down there and find this master. Perhaps they have designs that can help bolster business here at the shop.
