Opal Gems 2

SC03CRY1

A nice size for a crystal, 3.95 carats, with some very fine fire. It is a bit of a steal as there is a touch of potch on the back and there is one direction where the fire is not as fine (but this is skin-to-skin fire)
Many images so you can see that the fire is real from all directions. The gem is so translucent that the body color varies with background, therefore YOU CANNOT TELL or judge the color of the gem from any picture! How you mount how you mount or display the gem will determine its body color.

Impossible to catch the full fire in this gem. True crystal has the advantage of letting glimmers of fire come from the depths to the eye, and the subtle shadings in this gem are beyond the camera's ability (at least as seen on the web). A good buy at $110.

This is This is actually a poor image of the best view, the fire covers the view, the pattern is quite fine with blending down into the gem and very brilliant flashes on the surface.

Many views to show you that the fire is ever present, In the middle image below you see the one view which has lessor fire (at onenarrow angle only, and even here there is some fire apparent) - a slight tilt and there is a flood of fire.
