I saw this opal today in Vicky's shop at Lightning Ridge and let me tell you that no picture I have seen can do it justice. The colours are mesmerising and I couldn't stop looking at it. Unfortunately it is now sold, I believe, so it won't be on display for long. I did buy my daughter a beautiful set of green opal earings though that I know she will love at Christmas. The Down to Earth shop would sell some of the better opal jewellery in the Ridge.

They mine the rough opals themselves and then sell them to a suitable buyer. The buyer of the opal would then cut and polish it, to bring it's value up in order to sell for a profit to a jeweller or collector.
