Weighing in at just over 55 cts, this parcel contains 52 opals from Lightning Ridge and Coober Pedy. The parcel includes low quality completed opals, completed picture opals, and opals in need of reworking/final touch-up.

Many of these stones will need reworking or final touches to be useful for jewelry. Some of the issues include backs needing to be finished (no back bevel/not flat), inclusions, and other undesirable character traits. No crazing in any of the stones was noted. The smallest opal weighed .17 cts and the largest (the black crystal with sun flash) weighed 3.95 cts. The milky crystal with blue/green pinfire weighed 2.98 cts.

There are a few stones that appear to be settable without any adjustment. The few closely examined in the video are of that quality. Please review the video and image closely before purchasing.

All opals sold by Opal Workbench are solid Australian opals.

Photos and videos are taken with a phone, under artificial light. Although the goal is to always measure accurately, measurements and weights are approximate and may have minor variations.
