Oh Damn .... What Amazing looking stones.. I don't think I've ever seen anything like those before.. I'm still new to the whole hobby and I still can't believe what I'm seeing... those colors are so magical it's almost eerie to think those come from the ground.. What is that second and sixth one? and where do they come from ?
Great shapes btw.. and great pics too.

Thanks Roxy. They all came from Australia, although, I don't know exact locations. The second and sixth one would be Boulder Opals.

Those are beautiful! It's just too hard to pick out a favorite, maybe #5? Awesome work bud!

Great opals, mate. 6 and 8 are my favs.
Roxy, boulder opal is unique to Queensland. It is largely found in the south-west of the state around the Koroit area.

Good grief is right. Opals are always at the top of my fave list. Beautiful job Zoran. Hmmmm, how do I choose a favorite..............#5 is calling to me. It has such depth.

I can't wait to see the silver work you'll do for the first one. What a striking blue on the 4th one!

Gorgeous! If I had to pick a favorite, I think it'd be #3. I just love, love, love the colours on that one.
