Some information on your pieces:
- Boulder Opal
- I hand collected these pieces from years of fossicking in Sth Queensland from a place called Yowah
- They are known as Yowah nuts as often they appear to have a 'nut' of opal inside them - in the above picture on 1 specimen (top left) you can see this 'nut' formation
- They are also known as set in 'Matrix' opal
- You may see they brownish nut formations or on some they will have delicate banding of colored opal running throughout - sometimes in lines other times as scattered patterns of Opal
- Many, many more - this photo really isn't the best. It was a hot day and the gems were slightly wet & the photo was taken simply looking into a drum. We will choose a lovely selection for you!
*PLEASE NOTE: To bring a real sparkle to the gems in the above pictures - wet them to show off their true colors, this can be achieved easily with water, hair lacquer, varnish or polishing.
With other items, sometimes a hand or a coin will be in the picture, simply to show the size more clearly (the coin is not included with the listing).
