Top rough opal gets cut into an $18,000 gem

[professorxgaming]

I can't tell you how much I enjoy you and your family doing these videos. Australian Black Opal has become one of my favorite stones

No need. As always, it turned out absolutely gorgeous! ❤️💯

As both a fossil hunter and rockhounder, this pains me so much.

So glad you cut this & found the beauty within... easy choice, since it was already broken & in really bad shape as a fossil.

I want a beautiful opal ring more than anything! One with all the colors like these!

You will get a lot of satisfaction seeing someone wearing this as opposed to it accumulating dust on a shelf. I understand that not every find can be a specimen. It's your decision, and it turned out beautiful. Oh and naysayers it's WORTH MORE!

Legit thought the thumbnail was bubbles

[sixthsenseamelia]

Watch you do this?
No. 😢

Morning Hubby inherited opals from his uncle - what can he use them for - just lying here in containers?

[Rurouni]

Yeah such a poor choice.. It's all about the money I guess. What a shame

[tymonkalbarczyk]

Damn, you don't have to cut them all you addict!
