Description: Full set of roots/branches - rare find.
Weight: 109 carats.
Origin: Banten, Indonesia.
Type: Wood replacement opal.
Treatment: Some light oil has been rubbed on the outside. No heat treatment or colouring.
Shape: Tree roots.
Dominant Colors: Red, blue, green, orange, yellow.
Size: 78mm x 62mm x 50mm.
Condition: Perfect. No fractures.
Comments: This is wood replacement opal. Millions of years ago trees were buried by earth and volcanic ash. Over time silica seeped through the earth and filled in areas where the wood had eroded. The opal is in the shape of tree roots or branches. It is rare to find such a large piece with so many branches undamaged. Great color all over it.
Photos & Videos: taken under natural lighting conditions in our office (sun and shade). No lights, filters, photoshop or enhancements of any kind have been used. What you see is what you get.
Shipping info: you only pay to ship the first stone. Any additional purchases within 7 days will be added to the package at no additional cost. Please inform us if you want us to wait the seven days before shipping your order (otherwise it will be shipped upon payment and you will not be able to combine with other purchases). All stones shipped from the Czech Republic.
Return policy: when you receive your order - if for any reason you aren't fully satisfied you may return the untouched stones within 10 days for a full refund. Please just drop us a message and include a tracking number. We aim to please and do not want anyone to be unhappy so never hesitate to contact us. Once the stone has been cut, polished or modified in any way it is not possible to return.

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