You know tweety I'm the same way.. I've seen opal or just a big sparkly cab of it.. and it doesn't grab me like what you called "peekaboo" affect does.. lol and to think all this time I thought it was me just being weird for liking the rock it comes in too! or matrix is it?

Oh, man, those are great!! There is a kneeling/sitting oriental lady in the first one, and that pattern in the last is really nice. Really, really nice! T

You have good eye Tony, a couple others saw that image too. Where are your opal cuts? I remember you recently acquired some.

Those are so beautiful -- they look like stained glass windows. I saw the lady too, but she looked Native American to me.

Tony, I'm getting ready to unload some on the unsuspecting world any day now I recently got some wood wheels from Tonyturner, and I polished up 20+ Koroits only to discover I hadn't worked them all as well as I would have liked. The wood really provides an amazing shine, but it shows all flaws, lol. I'm hoping to get some photo'ed tomorrow or Monday as I'm working back through them, cleaning them up. T

Soft spots or not, those opals are amazing. It's so colorful and interesting. Steve
