These Andamooka opals are one of my favorite underrated opals! These stones come from Australia and are a natural earth mined solid opal. The stones typically come from the earth in a light grey or sandy color and the color play is very hard to see against the lighter background. So the miners developed a technique where the opal is cooked in a solution of sugar, and then treated in acid to permanently darken the matrix. This treatment helps the fire to really pop against the surface.
Ring size: 9 US
The band is about 17mm wide on top and gently tapers down to 7.5mm wide at the base. It has a nice low profile and a bezel wrapped stone for an easy to wear everyday ring.
