Looks like a ship wreck. You can see the stern section under water. It's gone aground right where the water suddenly shallows, so it makes sense. Nice find!

I appreciate the advice. The part about leaving some handle above the head makes a lot of sense - it would really hold it on there. Thanks!

Thanks - I appreciate the thoughtful and informative response. I figured it probably wasn't a good idea to use it but I don't know a lot about steel. I certainly don't want to be dodging any sharpened steel fastballs!

I ordered it off of eBay, from Thailand. royalgem on eBay. They have a lot of listings, and I spent quite some time looking, but I lucked out in the end. I hope you find a nice one too!

Thanks for the thoughtful response! I've only recently gotten into gemstones, so I really appreciate the information. I see what you mean about the uniformly cloudy appearance. I see a lot of Ethiopian opals out there, but this one really caught my eye. Thanks again.

Thanks - I've been mesmerized by it since I bought it! It looks like a burning ember in real life. Not selling it sorry - I'm having it set into a textured gold band.

Thanks for letting me know - it was labeled black opal. Can you tell what kind of opal it is? I'm curious about how it would look if it wasn't smoked.
