This item features a single cabochon of precious opal. Hand cut. Skin to skin color play. This is an oddly shaped stone - the bottom is in a "V" shape rather than flat. If you need more pics just send me an email.

Every opal is unique hot. Most of an opals beauty is in its play of color. You can see this in a video of this stone at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2RqJnxtlXM

This stone was literally hand-carved using diamond files and sandpaper. Time-consuming; yes, but I believe the results to be superior.

I took a look at the metaphysical properties of opal on the internet and found this . . .

"Opal is an emotional stone and reflects the mood of the wearer. It intensifies emotions and releases inhibitions. Encourages both freedom and independence. Opal enhances cosmic consciousness and induces psychic and mystical visions. It stimulates originality and creativity. Helps to release anger and claim self worth, aiding in accessing and expressing one's true self. Opal strengthens memory. It encourages an interest in the arts. Wearing Opal brings loyalty, faithfulness and spontaneity.

Opal strengthens the will to live and treats infections and fevers. Purifying the blood and kidneys, Opal also regulates insulin. It eases childbirth and alleviates PMS." www.charmsoflight.com
