PICTURE STONE!This is a natural seam opal rough that has sliced to expose the patterns. This stone has a interesting swirl of potch which will make a interesting picture stone-when polished you may be able to see a picture like a landscape scene ect. It shows when the opal formed it was in a fluid state and it was tossed around to make these amazing patterns. It is now ready for polishing.
This is what Dr Simon pecover who researchs opal formation said about these specimens.
What an absolutely incredible opal, showing extraordinarily well developed laminar flow banding, with some layers also showing gentle long wavelength perturbation to flow, PLUS, juxtaposed to what look like swirling “Dean Vortex” type eddy flow.
Mined in Lightning Ridge.
This photo was taken with the stones wet.
-all weights and sizes are approximate.

Why are users outbidding themselves?
When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a user is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on that users behalf, incrementally increasing the bid to maintain their position as the highest bidder, up to the specified maximum.
When there is an icon indicating 'Auto Bid,' it means our system is actively placing bids for the user based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if users are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the users maximum limit.
