Ask Peter About This Item
Boulder opal is one of those special gemstones which often falls into the category of we describe as 'abstract' stones. The term of course mainly applies to modern works of art but it aptly illustrates what is seen in many of these amazing pieces. The gem opal is often mingled with desert ironstone and through the manipulation of nature, produces patterns and shapes which can often resemble pictures and become true collectors items. This particular piece set in a silver ring, is a strip of opal combined with grey potch and brown ironstone. The patterns are unique and the colors tantalizing and mysterious. You will never get tired of peering into its wonders.
