Description/Interesting Notes: A gorgeous, old time example of precious opal from Australia!!! This specimen consists of an irregular mass of precious opal that has been polished on its broad face to reveal exceptional fire within!!! The opal itself exhibits a grayish hue which makes the colorful iridescent fire all the more inte...nse in person!!! The fire is outstanding and way, WAY better than the pics - in person it is simply incredible (this specimen no doubt has significant gem value as well)!!! This specimen retains an antique glass riker mount with an affixed A.E. Foote label on the reverse!!! This specimen likely dates to the late 1800's or early 1900's!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
