Opal set ~
Offered here is a trio of matching cabochons of fiery created opal. This 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. This lemony 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. Affordable too, unlike a lot of mined opal... These cabs feature blazingly brilliant near-rainbow of flashes in lime green, blue, yellow, purple and orange fire that's absolutely gorgeous, even prettier than the photos show. No kidding! There are also flashes of sky blue and other colors 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 large cab has a rounded dome of 4mm, while the smaller pair have a dome of 3.5mm. Each has a glistening polish both front and back.
Size: 46x16mm, pair 18x15mm
Weight: approximately 21 carats total
