Description
OPAL SOLID - BLACK ( GREEN / BLUE ) - 0.31CTS 7x5x1MM MATERIAL FROM LIGHTHING RIDGE This magnificent opal has been cut to form an oval shaped design. It is a nice size for a ring. The colour play features predominantly a sparkling deep green on a black background - a hint of blue can be seen when rotated.. It presents with both pinfire and broadflash when stationary or rotated. Rated by me as N1/N2 in body tone and has a brightness of around B2/3. Shaped in a oval form, it has been finished with a low cabochon top and flat bottom. It weighs 0.31cts and measures 7mm x 5mm and is 1mm thick.

Apart from cropping they have not been enhanced in any way. I am a private seller who was involved in the mining of opal material from the Mintabie, Coober Pedy and Lambina fields for more than 30 years. The material I present for sale (rough or finished) has been either mined or prepared by me and therefore I try to keep prices as realistic as possible. I do not purchase/on-sell any finished products. Thank you for your interest. Please contact me if you have any questions.
