    You should've made it a drop shape. Use your head, look at what you have, and walk away to think what is best. With the way it broke, you could've had the perfect drop shape. Get rid of the clear section, use the pointy part for reference. You would've saved a lot more of a stunning stone that way.

    I've got about 50 so called dark welo opals. Want to film them - difficult job, but very exciting. They have grey to blue mother/matrix stone around them. My experience so far is they dont care much about beeing in water. I have a few yellowish ethiopian opals with claycolour like matrix around. They almost suck the water. Their already yellowish colour became darker, a bit like amber. But the opalcolours are still there, turning more into yellow-red.

    @teodorkutzarov3866 22 дні тому

    You need to REALLY CLEAN them. Upon that, and faceting them, they are kind of losing their main color. Thus change the prize ofc. Good Luck with these. Peace

    95% of the comments here are from fake accounts and they're absolutely ridiculous. Seriously?? "A stroke of genius" "Painting with passion" "A celebration of creativity" "Lovely manifestation of talent" "An artistic genius" "A true artistic revelation" Give me a break, nobody talks this way, much less posts absurd fake comments like these. For these comments alone, you didn't earn my subscription nor will I ever watch any single one of your video uploads. Bye Felicia

    • @LuxuryOpalsEurope
      @LuxuryOpalsEurope 27 днів тому

      I recommend only purchasing a precise parcel where you see video of each stone beforehand. Typically opal is sold by the kilo. There are many reputable dealers but you can start with Mine to Market or Seven Resources

    Hello Luxury Opals Europe. I just found and subscribed to your channel. Very informative video, great presentation and beautiful rough too. I sure hope you cut and create more opal videos in the future. Maybe you could cut and polish a non-hydrophane opal and show us how it crazes/cracks over time while drying out. Thanks for this wonderful video. Very well done. Luxury Opals Europe rocks!

  • @Opal_Spectrum
    @Opal_Spectrum Місяць тому

    good video ..but using the term "crystal" to refer to the unstable type (young Welo) is not ideal and should be avoided because it creates more confusion. While the "good" Welo is very stable, its hydrophane nature means it can absorb liquids when worn in jewelry, potentially causing damage.

    • @LuxuryOpalsEurope
      @LuxuryOpalsEurope 27 днів тому

      I agree, I don't like it either. Unfortunately it is the standard way of referring to this material (especially by Ethiopian exporters). I always try to mention that it is in fact 'young opal' but people really cannot understand that. Would be great to have a solid term which is recognisable to the current market.
