Opal Specimens – Australian Opal
These are small crystal pieces of Opal from the famous Australian Opal fields.
These opals are mostly crackled/crazed. This means there are white spiderweb cracks across the stones - they are no good for cutting or polishing.
They are, however, a reasonable way to get some Aus Opal at a decent price.
We do occasionally have some small packets of non crackled Opal that may be suitable for cutting - but I'm no lapidarist.
Our current stock includes:
- Various packs of mixed Opal, 5 grams - these have plenty of colour and are stable, uncrackled. Decent pieces if small - some can probably be cut but they'd make very small cabochons. I've tried to put at least one larger piece in each bag.
