Description: This is truly a beautiful natural potch(colorless opal) backed Andamooka opal doublet. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a top quality opal doublet for a very reasonable price. This is not a flat top stone and the opal is quite thick and gives a 3D impression. Suitable for ring, pendant or bracelet. If you do not understand the term "doublet", please make sure to read the description below. 16x12x4 mm5.52 ct Opal DoubletA stone made of two parts. 1) The base can be made of various materials, however we try to use materials that are temperature stable and compatible with opal eg, glass, obsidian, ironstone(boulder) or potch(opal without colour). We, use ironstone(boulder) because of it’s natural beauty. It looks great when used with open backed jewellery. 2) The top, being opal, is either painted of dyed black then laminated to the base with an epoxy resin. The darkening of the opal helps to highlight colour and pattern. When the epoxy resin is dry the stone is cut and polished into a doublet. Please note that our photos are taken under artificial and natural light as any opal needs light to show its true colour and pattern.
