2008 - 07 "Blue Carved Opal Weight"

This carved opal weight features Blue Passion, Twilight, Amazon Lagoon and Amazon Jewel. The center of the implosion has a large gilson opal. The face has been ground and polished to an optical finish. The sides have also been carved on a diamond wheel to peel back the colors and give the piece a star like face. Piece measures just under 2.5" in diameter. Thanks for looking.
