Opal cab ~
Offered here is a sweet designer cabochon of fiery created opal. This crystalline opal is laboratory grown. The process is an expensive and time consuming one that can take up to two years to complete, and remains a closely guarded secret. The opal is actually grown from natural opal-bearing earths, or so I hear. Totally cool stuff, crack free and virtually 100% pure pleasure to work with. Best of all, it's affordable, unlike a lot of mined opal... Anyway, this cab features beautifully flashing green, blue and purple fire that's gorgeous. There are also hints of sky blue and pink in the stone at certain angles, as well as a fascinating color shift that you'd expect to see in opal dug from the ground. The sight of it in hand easily surpasses these photos, so I know you'll love it! The cab has a low rounded dome of 4mm, a designer 'bullet' shape, and a glistening polish both front and back.
