*Special Thanksgiving Day Auctions!*


Opal

Coober Pedy, Coober Pedy - Everard Range Regions, South Australia, Australia

5.7cm x 3cm x 2cm


Description/Interesting Notes:

An aesthetic example of precious opal from Australia!!! This specimen consists of a showy portion of white precious opal that displays lively, colorful fire throughout!!! There are two curious patches of darker colored, non-precious opal that provide a unique contrast as well!!! Interestingly, there is an odd alligator-skin like texture to the surface and the patches of fire line up precisely with the "scales" in many cases!!! It is an effect that simply needs to be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! It is always difficult to capture dynamic specimens like opal in pictures - this specimen has much more fire and intensity than the pictures show!!! The fire exhibits some wonderful patterns and shows a wide range of colors including lively blues and purples, intense reds and oranges, and electric greens!!! Simply a gorgeous specimen!!! The pics don't even come close to doing it justice!!! Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!! STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED MONDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 3-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY, (THANKSGIVING DAY!!!) NOVEMBER 26th!!!
