• Here's a gorgeous Owyhee Blue Opal sphere. The opal has mostly a wonderful sky blue color but there is some lighter blue and white, and even some green.
• It is of very good quality, has some transparency, and fluoresces a nice teal green under a black light (the lighter color glows yellow). There are a couple of sections with transparent light blue opal. There are also fractures common in large pieces of this opal.
• Owyhee blue opal occurs inside nodules made up from this gray matrix. Most of the time, and during mining, these nodules break to pieces since opal is very brittle.
• This sphere, however, was cut from an intact spherical nodule that the miner was kind enough to save for us.
• The photos of this Owyhee blue opal sphere were taken outdoors and in sunlight and from various angles and variations in color and appearance from the actual stone are possible.
• This Owyhee Blue Opal sphere is an outstanding collectors' item.
• Approximate weight: 12.9 oz
• Approximate size: 2.7" diameter or 68 mm
• Opal is the Birthsone for October.
