Crystal Opal Parcel from Mintabie, Australia.
Coming from the Mintabie mining region these two solid crystal opals are described as red, but many other colors also come out to play. Green, orange and flecks of blue make themselves known from certain angles, but the most individual feature of this pair, is the unique clear bands that make their way across the face of the opals. The smaller opal measures 9.7mm x 11.5mm and is 3.2mm, while the larger piece is 9mm x 12mm is has a height of 4mm. Both opals are cut in the medium cabochon style of cut giving freedom when deciding on a setting. Both are free of faults and have minor inclusions that will not be visible once set.
