Very pretty!! Technically Crystal, except to get there, you would have to take more off the back, which would make it too thin. It's a stunning stone though!!
Sure, not the brightest but makes up for it with size and consistency. That's a winner! Congrats. Thing about relatively inexpensive rough is that it cuts relatively inexpensive gems for relatively inexpensive and easy to sell jewelry. Buy some pendant and earrings silver prong settings, pop your opals in those settings, and you're good to go. Good strategy while still learning to cut. Economical even if you only give jewelry as gifts. Moms, wives, girlfriends, daughters all love opal jewelry!
Those blue/green/aqua colors always catch my eye more than any other colors do. Great job on the cuts and video, as per usual. I just bought a parcel from a seller you brought up in a video a while back. The parcel showed those same blue/green/aqua combos, and I'm really looking forward to receiving the stones. Id call that bigger stone a broad flash/moss pattern, personally
You are knocking it out of the park. Great job
I love these $$$ vs $ videos!
Very nice stone. cool colours
