Description

Superb rare Mexican Confetti Opal

This basaltic based Mexican black opal seldom comes up for sale.

The white areas are the opal and they are multicoloured.

There is only one mine and its location is a secret.

Search the web to see the prices "confetti opal"- about 1500 dollars for a piece this size.

Would make a one of a kind piece of jewellery.

I have only one or two pieces at present and am selling as I need the money.

No RESERVE

Flat rate $5 per parcel. $3 per parcel in the NR section.

We have had a few parcels go missing recently. Post from the UK is generally reliable but we cannot be held responsible for items that go missing in other countries.

I am happy to combine, please contact me first.

For special delivery and other shipping options please contact me.

I am happy to accept returns if the opals have been misrepresented. The opals I sell can be difficult to photograph - the appearance of mexican opal on photographs varies greatly with the lighting conditions!! I try to be as honest as I can with with my descriptions though and please read these before bidding.

Please contact me if you are at all unhappy with your purchase and we will try to work it out. I would appreciate it if we can try to resolve any problems before feedback is left.
