Description
~ Blue opal cab ~

Offered here is acabochon of blue opal, from Oregon's Succor Creek formation, at the edge of the Owyhee breaks. Even though there's no fire, I really hesitate to call it 'common opal', because it's certainly anything BUT common. It has a super-saturated blue hue that's to-die-for gemmy, and even this high domed stone is highly translucent when backlit. Yum! It should be equally beautiful in gold or silver jewelry, no doubt, or it would make a fine addition to any collection. The stone has a high and well rounded dome of 7mm, a designer teardrop shape, and a totally glassy polish both front and back.

Size: 34x20mm
Weight: approximately 31 carats
