Owyhee blue opal cab ~
Offered here is a cabochon of blue opal, a fairly recent find from Oregon's Succor Creek formation, at the edge of the Owyhee breaks. And lemme tell ya folks, it's mighty appealing stuff! 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, with lighter blue clouds and flecks in about half the stone. 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 well rounded dome of 5mm, a graceful designer shape, and a totally glassy polish both front and back.
Size: 45x12mm
Weight: approximately 16 carats
Price: SOLD See current gemstones for sale
