This opal is too big for my ring project, but perhaps perfect for you?
The super bright red/teal/orange/yellow color flashes shown here are most visible in the sun. Under natural indoor light and low lighting, you can still see the color flashes peeking through the blue-ish/grayish green body color, but obviously the flashes of colors are not as bright. Just a disclaimer for those unfamiliar with opal performance. :) I do have videos for those who would like to see it under different lighting!

Clarity Enhanced
From what I was told, the clarity enhancement was probably some filler for minor crazing (as seen in some pictures). I had the opal polished before sending to GIA since it was pretty worn from age, and the crazing didn't get worse during the polish so the filler was likely very minimal.
I do not accept returns, but if you are in the Los Angeles area, I'd be more than happy to meet up at your jeweler so they can inspect it!
