8.50CT PIPE WOOD REPLACEMENT BOULDER OPAL RE432

AMAZING PIPE WOOD REPLACEMENT BOULDER OPAL FROM WINTON QUEENSLAND

This is a natural stone with Crystal Opals forming in sandstone not Ironstone and was vegetation or wood 100 million years ago. The opal has replaced the timber cells over time so you can still see the formation. One of the most popular patterns is ‘Cathedral” Mined in Winton Queensland. You certainly won’t be disappointed with this Opal with it looking even better in real life.

This is an interesting Opal as there is timber replaced by precious opal .You can still see the wood grain in the Opal. A beautiful Opal and great for your collection.

There is some reflection from the artificial lights on the stone. We use led lights and our camera sometimes turns blue in to mauve colours so please consider mauve stones to be blue!
