No stockpile will accept large gems.  They generally just sit where-ever they were created or purchased.  You can move them with the dump command, or channel under them.  But they are sort of a pain in the butt as things stand.

Finished goods stockpile accept large gems, as the large gems that sometimes come out instead of a cut gem go there, but that artifcal perfect rock crystal doesnt :S

It might be that the artifact gem doesn't want to stack itself with all the other large gems, and therefore has no place in the finished goods stockpile.

Have you tried designating a new, artifact-quality only finished goods stockpile? If you have and it doesn't work then you're out of luck. The dump command paired with a smartly placed dump zone will let you place it in a specific location but that's about it.

Gem materials are not accepted in most stockpiles, so your artifact gem will not be taken anywhere.

This may be fixed soon, judging by the fact that the entry on the bug-tracker has been marked as resolved.

Indeed, from the front page today sometime in the last half hour,( yes I hit refresh on that page all the time until the update for the day is posted!  :D ):

"Allowed items made from gem materials (including large gems) to be stored in finished goods pile"

So that should be fixed in the next bug fix release.
