LOUISIANA OPAL FOUND ONLY IN LOUISIANA

Wow!! Louisiana Opal from central Louisiana, with incredible flashes of red, green, blue and violet. RARE - the mine is closed.

The precious opal from Louisiana is a sandstone/quartzite with precious opal cement and matrix. The play of colors is awesome. The material could be cut into cabochons for jewelry and other items of intrest. To date, most of the material has been cut into large (over 2-inches in diameter) gemstone spheres.
