THESE ARE NOT SUITABLE FOR CUTTING. PLEASE SEE OUR 4A OPALS FOR CUTTING ROUGH.
This is AA grade opal that is hand selected to ensure that every piece has flash. We do not import any second grade opal without flash due to new export laws in Ethiopia that make it cost prohibitive to export anything of lower quality. We only buy opal with play of color.
This stock photo listing is for larger sized opals with play of color. These are our most cost effective offering for people who make their own jewelry. These larger stones offer a larger surface area that shows off the fire. Many of our customers buy these for wire wrapping and other jewelry projects. These are not suitable for cutting but are used regularly in raw opal jewelry fabrication.
We will select the opals you will receive. If you would like specific pieces, please search our shop where we have a large selection of individually photographed opals.
For cutting grade opals, please search our shop for 4A opals.

Each stone is unique and beautiful so please expect slight variations in color, texture, and size.

Some listings have multiple sizes. Please refer to the size ranges and note whether they are in inches or centimeters. 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters. Macro photography is used to show detail but can make items appear larger than their actual size. The ruler photo shows possible variations of the size and quantity you will receive.
