Finished gems have a particular cut, which doesn't affect the gem's value. A gem may appear to have multiple cuts, such as a "square brilliant" or "tapered baguette" cut, but these combinations are actually distinct cuts (judging by the game's raws). Some gem cuts are also known as "cabochons", which have a basic "shape" cut typically as a rounded, polished stone. Gizzard stones do not have cuts.

Large gems (the finished good) are referred to as a singular version of their material such as "large single cut clear zircon" or "large cushion moonstone cabochon". Cut gems (the most common output of gem cutting which is used for decorating) are referred to as a plural version of their material such as "round brilliant cut peridots" or "cushion green diamond cabochons".
