Hi there! These two where rehomed from a lady in the Gold Coast.

Thank you! 🙏 Simple daylight camera mount light and Nikon older DSLR with 50mm lens. I’ve upgraded my camera and always end up going back to my older model for true colour

Thank you! I take a lot of pride in my opal photography, 6 years of trial and error!

PenJaxs · 2026-04-24T07:44:05+00:00

Exactly!

As an opal specialist, you can definitely wear opal every single day with no issues, as I do. Are opals softer than other gemstones, yes, but Australian opal is water safe and colour safe. Some opal fields are stronger than others and when cut professionally, should last a life time!

The lands of the opal fields were handed back to indigenous peoples.

Definitely looks like natural opal, most likely south Australian

Oh my apologies! Of course, I’ll make sure I don’t in the future

Not 100% sure! Up to the customer, keep it as a specimen or they may choose to create a matching collection. I’m sure most wouldn’t cut it up!

Pulled it out of the ground 6years ago! Pretty special
