    Its time for the people to realize that Ethiopian opal quality grades exist, Mine run, A, AA , AAA. The stuff you have seen in piles at your annual gem show are are used to make dop sticks on this channel. Always the highest quality with this company never cracks never crazes. 3 figure kilos? add another zero. Buy it and try it, then try to deny it you simply cannot. The most underrated Gem out there and its going to change.

      I thought ethiopal opal was known for cracking when it dries out? That probably has to do with its porous nature, while the quality of opal is judged by its appearance. having bright vivid colors on an ethiopian opal won't make it any less likely to crack. These aren't man made products and calling them "high quality" can't alter their inherent properties.

    @soelih8970 Год назад +3

    I'd REALLY recommand using two pieces of wood with a nice layer of semi-soft rubber instead of your fingers when cutting a stone so close to the edge.. nobody never had any accident like that until their first time, but when you cut of a part of your finger, or just injured nerval tissue, also at the very first time - trust me you'll miss the part for quite a long time.

      @@shawnstatzer95if it’s Ethiopian then it needs to be kept moist or it will crack if it dries out too much. I sort of agree with you it does seem to not be an Australian Nobby with that distinctive white witches hat. Generally Australia has more white seam opal and not black. This is black seam opal and that’s an uncommon thing in Australia.

      After watching B.O.D. for many years, it looks like Australian black opal. FEELS Aussie to me. It may not be, I can't say for sure. You stated that there was no witches hat. In the beginning he says that it's a rub, so there won't be any nobby to see. I do think that he could have sliced it parallel to the face and ended up with TWO four mm thick stones instead of one, so that was a loss to me. ( back seat driver here 🙄)
      I have seen at least one other site that has wasted good opal in an even worse manner. Could make an opal lover cry. That's why I usually stick to one cutting site. I don't think anyone has to guess who I'm talking about🙂.
      It's still a beautiful opal, and I love seeing it. Thanks opal dudes. Caviar wishes and Opal dreams👍

      Ethiopian hydrophane opals are occasionally impregnated with polymers to reduce porosity and increase stability.
      Though the practice of stabilisation in these opals isn't currently widespread, it's definitely something to keep an eye out for.
