Folks here is another Christmas Special for you, at an incredible price.

A 12.5 carat Gem cut from a Belemnite that has the most amazing red orange yellow green fire you are likely to see for twice this price.

It measures 20 x 14 x 5mm. The fire is simply out of this world and you will not find a brighter Opal in the market.

It will make the most beautiful pendant and is ready to set. It would also make a very nice large ring.

It has a few inclusions, as most Belemnites do. These are quite acceptable in Belemnites and Shells. Similar to Diamonds which all have inclusions or flaws of some type, but they are all Diamonds and a flawless one is almost unheard of.

Some words from my expert cutter, who is amoung the top few percent of Opal cutters in the World.

When i studied shell replacement (last century), i came to understand

> that shell type material has a calcium rich shell and the animal

> inside. When the animal dies, all the meat goes from smaller animals

> eating the meat and even the shell and rotting. The shell itself being

> a solid can break down and when the opal has replaced it, it leaves

> this milky/sandy exterior. Also, an observation from all my diving

> years, the shell sits in the sand and depending on the openings

> direction it can fill with sand. Bivalves are a good example. When the

> actual muscle that holds the 2 shells together dies, it releases

> leaving the shell open and sand inevitably fills the void.

The color in this piece is worth north of $300 USD per carat. I have seen lesser color in Belemnites for $600 per carat sold. This piece has a little sister that is also offered for an amazing price listed in my store.

I am proud to offer you such a Gem, at this price.
