Description
Welcome to Opal Exclusively!

  • this is a very unique stone that resembles an Australian opal clam shell. The concave back of the stone was left completely untouched and contains a "seam" where the developing opal coalesced!
  • small rolling rainbows pattern
  • orange, yellow, blue, green, and purple colors
  • 4/5 brightness
  • slightly milky body color
  • I cut all my own stones, with each one being a labor of love
  • My stones have a superb polish, with a smooth, continuous finish with no scratches or flat spots (note how smoothly the reflection of the light source moves over the opal's surface in the video)
  • I don't cut for mass production, but rather to bring out the full beauty of each individual piece of rough opal
  • photos and videos are taken under a low-voltage 50W MR-16 halogen light
I want you to be 100% happy with your opal. Opal is a dynamic stone and the magic of its play of color cannot be totally captured in a photograph or video. You truly have to hold it in your own hand to realize its full beauty!! If you find, for whatever reason, that you are not completely satisfied with your opal and would like to return it, you may do so for a full refund. I ask that you simply return the stone, UNALTERED IN ANY WAY, within 10 days of receipt of the stone. You are responsible for shipping and insurance costs. Once received, I will promptly issue you a refund in the same manner used for purchase.
