Opaque Opal.

Great pear shape.

It is an interesting piece, like a patch work quilt. In one direction it will flash patchworks of electric greens. Then when you move it slightly electric sky blue and sea blues / green colours will pop up in other parts of the stone. With very close inspection there are no fractures. There are lines of dark and lighter potch which we think just add to the beauty of this stone.

Lovely thick stone.
Highly polished and ready to be set.
