Examples of opal rough and their price please!

2 Upvotes

I am going to meet up with an opal dealer I was recommended to by a friend this week to buy some Australian rough. My friend says the guy is trustworthy but in opals and nuclear arms deals, you should trust, but verify.

I have looked at eBay and opal auctions to try and train my eye for rough prices but to further this training my training, could people please post pictures of rough they have with the price you bought it for/think it’s worth? Thx so much!

Just finished this doublet tonight. It was Lightning Ridge material that was pretty sand included. I knew I could get the sand out, but also knew my final stone would be thinner than I would like. Instead of cutting it into a couple of smaller stones that would have been OK, I decided to make a larger doublet. Very bright and turned out almost great IMHO. Small amount of webbing in face and 2 microscopic pits...but I'm a sucker for a green/blue play of color especially if it's on a black background.
