Opalite cab ~
Offered here is a cabochon of opalite, from the Brush-Wellman beryllium mine in Utah. Sometimes known as bertrandite, Tiffany stone, ice cream opal, and 'Purple Passion', no matter what you call it, it's certainly gorgeous stuff! I'm told this rare opal gets its beautiful coloration from fluorite. This cab features pastel 'sunset' colors along with the typical lavender blush, and jet black dendrites that stand out in sharp contrast. It has a high rounded dome, a graceful designer shape, and a great glassy polish both front and back.
Size: 36x18mm
Weight: approximately 25 carats
Price: SOLD See current gemstones for sale
